They not only have plans to remove a pet, but they also have plans to keep a pet with in a home and try to help the owner. When an elderly needs help with a pet and cannot properly take care it then volunteers step into help so the elderly and the pet can still stay together. That program is called Homeward bound. They also have dog walking programs, grooming programs, food banks, animal hospitals, adoptathons, and affordable spay and neuter clinics. Like I said before they also help people like the elderly program, Homeward Bound, but they also have programs for pet owners who are homeless, government assisted people, or the mentally ill.

Charleston Animal Society is involved with non-profit organizations that are working to make our world a better place. Whether it is working with children, the elderly, hurting bodies, hurting souls, or the environment, non-profit volunteers, workers, and organizations fight for justice, equality, and hope. In this case Charleston Animal Society works to fulfill its mission by caring for pet parents and pets, providing positive outcomes for at-risk animals, and serving all victims of animal cruelty. And just like any other important phenomenon, non-profiteering is a socially sustained reality. That is, it is made up of real-life people in real-life situations, working together to create and sustain an organization and hopefully working together to create positive change. Charleston Animal Society utilizes both its website and its television advertisements to encourage people to participate in the organization either by donating or adopting. Charleston Animal Society’s website’s organization, content, and layout work primarily to entice visitors to donate money. An examination of the webpage shows the site builders’ careful planning of the design elements. Visitors cannot avoid the large rectangle across the top of the page containing a slideshow of four different pictures. Each of the pictures, a close-up of a dog or cat that has been rescued by the organization, shows a pet with large and sad eyes, forcing the visitor to make eye

We rely on the generosity of people just like you to help support our no-kill animal rescue mission.

This article presents the effort to shut down all puppy mills. So far 88 cities small and large have shut down in effect to this. These puppy mills include cats, rabbits, and other small breeds as well. Phoenix is known to be the first city to have a pet store challenge to put a ban on puppy mills. Other cities such as New York City and Salt Lake City have taken a stand against puppy mills as well. As more consumers learn more about the puppy mills, they as well are wanting nothing to do with them. Although many changes are being made some of the local laws still allow small breeds and animals from the animal shelter to be sold. Pet stores now have the option to change to a ‘humane business model’ which allows them to work with shelters and

An email campaign could be launched to the existing customers offering a coupon for a free dental screening for pets in the month of July. They’ve mentioned summer being their slow season, so they have the time. People will forward the email to their friends so they can all take advantage of the promotion. If the staff is properly trained, they can help educate the pet owners of the importance of dental care, and would likely get them some new business (and with a higher profit margin as well). The Greenies Dog/Cat Treats samples are a cheap way (and likely free) to promote this program at the July 4th Family Fun Fest, where they could also give out doggie bandanas that are printed with American flags.

Anyone who is capable and willing can make donations to Peaceful Pets at the facility or at one of our monthly adoptions. All donations go towards bedding and food for the animals as wells as the cost to have them spayed and neutered. Monthly adoptions are held on the second Saturday of every month and are held at our facility, these adoptions will allow our program to bring in more pets since people will be adopting. At the adoptions, the Peaceful Paws volunteers sell baked goods and other things such as treats, collars, and tags as a way to raise money for the upkeep of the facility. Anyone in the community who is over the age of sixteen and has a love for animals can volunteer at Peaceful Paws. We highly recommend those who are in school for any type of Veterinarian Medicine or Zoology degree to volunteer since it is a great glimpse into what they may be doing in the future. When the volunteers graduate from college having the Peaceful Paws program on their resume can help them get good

During my time volunteering, I helped walk the dogs, play with them outside, socialize them, and occasionally clean up their room. One of my favorite socialization activities is called Running Buddies; certain dogs are able to leave the Paws building area with approved volunteers to expand their social experience as well as hopefully meet someone interested in adopting them. Volunteers also have the opportunity to learn how to train the dogs, help with Saturday Adoption events, assist in the administration offices, and many other tasks. All of these tasks help make sure the animals are living comfortably and aide in their adoption. Aside from the animals, the staff benefits from the time volunteers

Some of the most recent ones from 2013 are Scotiabank, the Ottawa Valley Veterinary Professional Corporation, Paws Fur Thought and Telemiracle/Kinsmen Foundation. Additionally, the organization relies on individual donations and welcomes ideas regarding fundraising. Money is not the only source of funding the organization receives. Interested individuals have the opportunity to view a wish list in which the organization specifies items that are needed such as cleaning supplies, wheelchairs and other

There is Michelle Lewis, who is the director of operations, Chris Harris, who is the program manager, and Joni Loyd, who is the Medical Coordinator. There are many other staff member and board members, and they are all part-time. There is a handfull staff and board members, but most of the community is made up of just ordinary people with a passion for animals. There are a couple thousand volunteers at L.O.H. They volunteer at L.O.H. and play with the cats and dogs, re-plenish their food, and clean the cats’ litterboxes. Other people donate items such as food, litter, toys, and collars for the

The organization donates money, as well as certain resources like bleach, and dish soap to the animal shelter regularly. Such is the enthusiasm of the Brogan-Patrick staff for this cause, three employees even adopted a cat and two dogs from the shelter. The dogs spend most of their time on the company grounds, and are allowed to wander around the buildings and manufacturing facility.

Vision: To promote engagement and participation by building a connection between individuals with disabilities and therapeutic animals. We will strive to obtain animals from shelters giving them a second chance at achieving a full meaningful life, while they aid the clients in obtaining a higher quality of life.

As an organization, we hope to become Florida’s largest and most prestigious non-profit therapeutic petting zoo providing animal-assisted

At home and at work, ritual gives structure and meaning to each day…humans create both personal and communal ritual. The ones that carry meaning become the dance of life” (p. 261-262). In accordance with the society’s missions, they have several ritual events annually and monthly. During the summer, they offer summer camps for children, where they have the opportunity to interact with pets, play games, do crafts and go on field trips, all while learning about animal care, handling, and animal welfare-related issues. They also host a “Strut your mutt” event every September, where animal lovers take a scenic stroll on a Sunday morning with their favorite canine(s). All proceeds go to the Sadie Fund, which covers a wide variety of veterinary expenses, from antibiotics to major surgery, and everything in between. Lastly, AWS also hosts a variety of adoptions days around Southern Maine furthering their mission to find stable loving homes for a variety of
