Foster Homes
We desperately need Foster Parents! This means you are responsible for providing a safe and loving temporary home for the dog(s) of your choice. Your job is just to love and feed and care for the animal(s) in your care. We provide anything you need for them while in your care (food, crate, etc.) and pay all medical expenses. You would be responsible for getting them to/from any vet appointments, getting them to adoption events and talking with potential adopters about that pet via email or phone. Fosters provide an invaluable resource to help these animals become family pets and able to find their forever homes!
Daily Care of Dogs
This entails letting dogs out to go potty and play while cleaning their runs/kennels/crates and feeding and watering them. We normally have about 40 dogs to care for.
You need to be physically fit, able to lift at least 55 pounds, and be capable of handling large dogs. This is a very physical job, and you will get dirty! Hours: 9am - 1pm and/or 5 pm - 8 pm
Help Make Phone Calls
We need someone to call adoptive parents to get updates and follow ups after adoption. We'll email you the lists of names/numbers and you can do this in your free time at your convenience.
Fundraising Drives
We need people (or groups) to work on raising support and supplies (such as food, cleaning supplies, blankets, etc). This is a great project for schools, Girl & Boy Scout troops, church groups, etc!
Help at Adoption Events
We need responsible people to help at events to help watch/walk dogs, talk to people and do adoptions.
Hours: Saturdays, 11 am to 4 pm.
Help with Baths and Grooming of Dogs
We have bath days one Sunday a month during the warm months and need 4-6 people to help with these. It's a fun and "wet" day for everyone. Hours: 12 pm - 4 pm

Transporters
We need people we can call or email to help transport dogs from shelters, typically in Jacksonville, Daytona, Deland or Orlando, to Bunnell. We also need help with getting dogs to and from vet and grooming appointments or to and from adoption events.
We rescue most of our animals from shelters that are "high kill" and euthanize a large number of animals. Unfortunately, sometimes we can't save them just because they don't have a "ride."
If you can help with this, it literally saves lives! All you need to do is go to the shelter we are picking up from and get the animal(s) and bring them either to us in Bunnell or a prearranged meeting point.
We normally save animals from the following shelters, so if one is near you we would sure appreciate the help!
Please note:
You would need to provide your own crate(s). All dogs need to be crated for their safety.
All animals MUST be transported inside a safe and secure vehicle.
