Weekend Afternoon Red Needed
************************************************
Dog Walking Schedule:
Dog Walking Schedule:
The minimum number of walkers needed by 9:00 a.m. is two in order to handle the task of getting dogs out for their first morning walk.
Volunteers are really needed early in the morning, 9:00 a.m. every day! Even if you can only help for a half hour or an hour, it would help.
The dogs are color coded. New volunteers may NOT walk Red dogs. Please pay attention to the color coding and the cage cards. Red walkers' names in red type.
***************************
Important: Please do not sign up for a shift if you aren't sure you can make it! Other volunteers come in if there isn't enough coverage. Some people have signed up for shifts and have been either late or not shown up at all. We really need at least two people early in the morning--9:00--to get everyone out.
*Please try to notify me of your walking plans by Sunday night each week, if possible. You may also call, e-mail, or text me at 709-4140 by 8:30 a.m. on the day you wish to come in. I will then put you on the schedule and notify the shelter. You may come in as long as there aren't already the maximum number of walkers on that particular day or shift.
Maximum number of walkers in the morning is 6 at one time, 4 in the afternoon.
Please make sure no dogs are left outside or in the meet-and-greet room when the last volunteer leaves.
REMINDER: Every Tuesday is surgery day. Find out who is having surgery when you come to walk the dogs.
New Red Walker Policy: New red walkers must be accompanied by another red walker for a period of several weeks. New red walkers have a double asterisk by their names.

From Anne:
We are beginning a new year 2015 and as a reminder, I am in the process of collecting annual membership dues of $10 from all Friend's volunteers (fosters included) at the shelter, Petsmart and Petvalu. Anytime between now and at our annual meeting in April (more to come later) you can leave the money in the "blue pouch" with the shelter staff or at Petsmart. Please include with the fee your name, email and phone number. We have already made a big difference in the lives of cats and dogs and I hope this year we can do even more with your help. Thank you, Anne Nowosad (Treasurer)

Please don't leave big, strong dogs unsupervised in Run #1, as a strong dog might be able to break out.
