DOG LOVERS

        WE NEED VOLUNTEER WALKERS

Do you love dogs? We at the Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter do too and our dogs need help. Trainers and pet psychologists agree that one of the most important gifts we can give a dog is exercise. Although animals receive fine care at the shelter, the dogs need your help to walk them more. Walks help dogs release the energy that builds up from living in the kennels, and help the dogs socialize with people. The dogs are more adoptable because of these volunteer efforts. Even 1 or 2 hours one day a week would be extremely beneficial. If you are 18 or older, please contact the shelter today at (609) 978-0127. The dogs will love you for it!
 

 

CAT LOVERS

       WE NEED VOLUNTEER CUDDLERS

If you love cats and want to make a difference in a homeless cat's life, the Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter needs your help! We are looking for people to join our volunteer PetSmart program. The new Manahawkin PetSmart has invited us to house cats on the premises. We just need to provide volunteers to help clean cages and feed the cats in the mornings and help with the adoption process in the afternoons. And of course play with them when time provides.  If you are 18 or older and can spare some time each week, please contact the friendly staff at the Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter today at 609-978-0127.
