Life on the streets is hard for animals.  The Humboldt County Animal shelter does what they can to bring animals out of the cold and into loving homes.  While the animals are at the shelter, they need a variety of services.  The Humboldt County Animal Shelter is asking for volunteers to help walk the dogs, show animals to the public, to do laundry and help with maintenance.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please come by the shelter at 980 Lycoming Avenue, Mckinleyville, and fill out an application. If you have questions, please contact Sergeant Kym Thompson at (707) 840-9132. We got our dog at the shelter and were very impressed with the dedication of the volunteers.  They were very helpful.
