Pet Shelter
i would like to volunteer at a pet shelter or something to do with animals any ideas?

i am 13 and looking for a good animal shelter place or whatever to volunteer with animals any ideas?
i live in winnipeg stvital any where near there

When I owned my pet store, we had volunteers come in to help socialize and play with the animals. You had to sit down and watch a few videos to learn about whatever area of the store you would be working. Then the shifts were only 2 hours long. You had to show us a good report card. Have written parents permission. It was a win win situation. You learned about the animals, the animals were loved. We had alot of students ask, and we could only take 2 per afternoon for an 8 week course. If there aren't any in your area, you might suggest it.
I know veterinarians need walkers for the dogs boarding.

SHELTER DOGS
Shelter Dogs is a provocative and heartrending look at the complex issues surrounding animal sheltering through the tale of one shelter and its staff. This feature length documentary takes the viewer into the gray zone of the national animal welfare system where quality-of-life issues take center stage. At the heart of the documentary is Sue Sternberg, an animal welfare pioneer who has created Rondout Valley Kennels, a model animal shelter in Upstate New York. At Rondout Valley Kennels, dogs live in suites decorated with rugs and chairs. They listen to piped-in music and receive training. Each dog is carefully assessed and temperament tested. If a dog is mentally deteriorating in the shelter or shows aggression, Sue will euthanize the dog, believing that it is a more humane option than a lifetime in the shelter. As Sue agonizes over each animal, faces rising debt, and becomes increasingly worried, the audience is given a first-hand look at the difficult ethical choices shelter staff face every day. The result is an unprecedented view of animal sheltering in the United States.

Shelter Dogs
Photographer Traer Scott's endearing portraits of dogs living in American shelters are irresistible and heart-rending - and make a passionate appeal to dog lovers everywhere. The portraits reveal the strikingly intense emotion, dignity and, sometimes, humour and whimsy that Scott saw in each face despite the dog's circumstances. By documenting the undeniable expressions of emotion in the dogs encountered in her volunteer work, Scott raises awareness of animal rescue causes, and especially the need for more adoptive homes for abandoned dogs. This book of true portraits of fifty beautiful shelter dogs is a poignant and loving tribute to all dogs.

Everett euthanizes cats, closes feline shelter to stem disease outbreak
EVERETT — The Everett Animal Shelter has been temporarily closed to cats after a kitten reportedly died from a highly infectious disease Monday. Two kitten deaths since Sunday led to tests that showed feline panleukopenia in one animal’s feces, said Kate Reardon, spokeswoman for the city of Everett.
