Calling myself an animal lover would be an understatement. I'm writing this from home right now with the "help" of my dogs.
I have some ideas for shelters, and for the pups all over the world. I want to help the conditions of the shelters, as well as educate people on what it really means to be a pet parent.
Every time I go to Costco I buy an extra bag of dog food to take with me when I volunteer. I'd like to find a way to get the company, Costco, involved in donating locally. I dont want to harass customers, but I think it would be great that if they wanted to donate a bag of food, it could come at a discounted price. Feeding the animals (well) in shelters is a huge struggle. The brand Science Diet has deals with many shelters directly, but it's not enough.
We could always use more volunteers! I think getting involved with local high schools that may offer extra credit or some type of course credit for volunteering would be awesome.
I also know that there are a lot of animal lovers out there, or first time pet parents who just dont really know how to take care of their animals even though they love them and want to. I think it would be great to get a group of people with some film experience to make some videos or "commercials" (not the sad helpless kind). These would be about education and love, they would be fun and catchy. People need to know how important veterinary care is, things to watch for, training to prevent behavioral problems, etc. Lots of dogs end up in shelters because the owners think they are "bad" but they just haven't been taught well. I'd love to contact news stations to run my awesome videos. I have no social media, so maybe someone could help on that front?
I have to go but I will be back to share more!
