Description
We are a sanctuary for unwanted and abandoned dogs. We provide a safe-haven for these dogs, work and train with them to offer them a true second chance at life!
Some of our furry family members got to us with some more challenging behaviors then usually. they are all very good, loving dogs! We will tech everyone what to know about each personality. If you decide to help us here at our sanctuary, the tasks we need help are the day to day takin care of the dogs. this includes cleaning the house and their crats, cleaning up after them on the property, helping us to socialize them with each other to help us achieve the goal to have everyone live care free under one roof. The work is a "dirty" one, but the unconditional love you receive back from them can't be put into any $ value!!!
It is no easy work! Most of the time it feels like you are in the move Groundhog Day!
We hope we didn't scare you too much of what life here at our sanctuary looks like and we would be honored to welcome you here at our Home as a valued workaway volunteer!

Some dogs might display more challenging behaviors then others. Working here at the sanctuary is full filing but it involves head work as well. Pick up poop, washing the dogs, cleaning the crates and the house is a full-time job.
