On the 24th of January
2013, the Leo club of Assunta had organized a trip to Second Chance Pet Shelter
to volunteer. 13 Leos participated in this project. We gathered at school
around 10.00 a.m. and left for the pet shelter after everyone arrived. After
arriving at the pet shelter, we separated ourselves as some Leos were afraid of
dogs. 8 Leos went in to clean whereas the others waited outside.
We learned how to clean the kennels
from the adult volunteers and we managed to clean at least 7 to 8 kennels. At
about 12.30 p.m., we fed the dogs. It was mixed with dog food and rice. After
feeding all of the dogs, we carried some puppies before leaving the shelter. We
learned that most of the dogs in the shelter were abandoned or abused.
We were dismissed and we headed back
to school. We were all tired, dirty and smelled like dogs but we all had a
wonderful time volunteering at the pet shelter. We hope to volunteer again someday
soon.
