Good exercise, and we don't charge a membership fee!

This is just a few short clips of some of the dogs being walked yesterday. The identities of the volunteers have been left out to protect me! They didn't seem too thrilled with being taped. The dogs didn't seem to mind at all! It was a nice day to walk the dogs. It was a little windy, but warm. Most of us got in 4 to 5 miles of enjoyable exercise. If you would like to join us, we do this every Sunday 1-3, regardless of the weather. The dogs really appreciate the extra attention, and time practicing on a leash makes it a little easier to show them to potential adopters.

Thank you Kelsey! My little RCA "Small Wonder" video camera doesn't produce the best quality video, but I can carry it in my pocket and use it with one hand while I'm walking dogs. I appreciate your comments and suggestions. We're starting to get a lot more traffic to this blog, and quite a few people are visiting regularly. That's why we set it up. We want it to be easy and enjoyable to find out what's happening at the shelter. The more we're in the public eye, the more aware people are about us and what we do. Hopefully, this will pay off for the animals. That's why we all do what we do.

Wonderful post! The dogs look so happy with lots of wiggle-butts and wagging tails!

Thank you Kendra! Shelter dogs seem to enjoy their walks a lot more than other dogs. They are very appreciative of any time you are willing to give them.
