Areas of Interest
(Check All That Apply) *
Pet Fairs/Adoptions - Volunteers needed to participate in adoption events. Part-time help is welcome. Volunteers are needed to set-up & maintain cages, provide attention to the dogs, offer assistance to foster home adopters and clean-up at event end. Volunteers and foster homes learn to screen for potential homes and new foster housing.
Foster Care - Provide temporary housing for dogs awaiting adoption. We need homes for healthy dogs who just need a temporary place to stay where they will be cared for and loved as well as special needs dogs (such as sick or injured). Foster homes may choose to foster only healthy, ready-to-adopt dogs or may choose to be trained to care for special need dogs.
Fund Raising - Work with other volunteers to raise cash donations, supplies, etc. Plan events and sales ideas to raise much needed money for veterinary bills & dog care.
Transportation - Dog transport to/from veterinarians, foster homes, pet fairs, etc. Hauling pet food and other supplies from donation centers (truck or large van required). PAWS New England does not assume liability for any injuries or expenses that may be incurred by the volunteer, visitor or family whether caused by an animal or other source.
