Put in my application to volunteer at lost dogs home.

Fingers crossed.

Let me know if theyโ€™re as high risk for euthanasia as theyโ€™re painted out to be. I avoid surrendering cats to shelters after seeing some of that stuff

Sent a sick stray to the vet who then sent kitty to them. They were still taking care of her a few weeks after when I called to check.

Thatโ€™s good. Still concerned

Will do. I know they have a bad rep I just want to see how they look after the animals.

Lost dogs or Lort Smith? I did about seven months at Lort Smith.

I'll apply at lort Smith as well
