Volunteers who have completed Dog Walking 101, please join us for Friends Tandem Walking Club (FTWC) every Wednesday from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Friends Tandem Walking allows volunteers to walk dogs into the early evening. For safety reasons two volunteers walk one dog as a team. A volunteer leader may decide to go on a brief pack walk depending on the number of volunteers.

Volunteers who have completed Dog Walking 101, please join us for Best Friends Walking Club (BFWC) every Saturday from 8:15 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.
Best Friends Walking provides the opportunity to take dogs on a pack walk to a nearby park, enjoy a break to give the dogs treats and water, and then return to the shelter. Volunteers meet at 8:15 a.m. to select the dog to walk and then wait in front of the shelter to leave as a group when the volunteer leader indicates everyone is ready. The roundtrip it is approximately a 2-3 mile walk.
