Last Day Dog Rescue events are a fun way to get to know the other volunteers and dogs in your area! After you join LDDR you can RSVP to events you can attend. This is perfect for LDDR fosters and volunteers who want to know about upcoming adoption events they can bring their foster dogs to or help by transporting a dog. Our volunteers handle dogs at the events, sharing their attributes with potential adopters. What better way to get a doggie fix? All it takes is a few hours on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.

Would you be willing to provide help at the kennels we work with?
This would involve taking dogs on walks to practice their leash walking skills; transporting the dogs to the veterinarian’s office; bringing the dogs to adoption events; taking photos of the dogs; spending time with the dogs to learn traits about them that we can list on their web page; and meeting potential adopters at the kennel to do the paperwork to finalize adoptions.

Are you magic with a camera? Join the photography team. A photograph’s power to saves lives couldn’t be more apparent than in the case of rescue animals. We need great photo’s of our animals that are available for adoption, and of successfully adopted animals. Also, you would be taking photos at adoption events, special events, and fundraising events.
