How some teenagers spend their Saturday
Last weekend at the shelter 10 teenagers came to visit, carrying huge bags of dog food, rice, and chicken.
They were students at Prince Royal’s College and took it upon themselves to contact Care for Dogs to set up a time to visit and feed the dogs.
During their visit they got to know many of our residents and inquired into their lives and medical conditions. They learned a little about diseases such as TvT and mange. Many of them were pleasantly surprised to learn that mange is a skin problem that is not contagious and can be easily treated and not something that is dirty and transmittable.
They enjoyed visiting each enclosure and feeding the dogs and puppies. And the dogs and puppies loved the extra treats and cuddles.
Care for Dogs greatly appreciates their kindness and donations. It warms our hearts and gives us hope to see that there are young people who would take time out of their Saturday to share what they have with our dogs in need.

Soraya " Since visiting Care for Dogs, I have learned that feeling sorry from a distance and wishing I could help them just wasn’t enough. I started coming just to play with the doggies here, walk them and talk to them. The dogs just loved my attention, hugs and scratches behind the ears even if I couldn’t take them home. [More]"
