giving of yourself

madelyn this year had to give the gift of herself for school.  she choose to go to our local animal shelter to volunteer for 2hrs. so both the girls and myself bought them lots of supplies that they needed and headed out. it was quite heart breaking to be there, but we did our job socializing with all the dogs and cats.  the huge dog above was golden retriever-shepherd mix and was the goofiest thing ever. his feet were to big for his body and was just a klutz. the little dog was 1 of 3 that were found abandoned in a home. he just couldn’t get close enough to you and cried the whole time because he was so happy.  he reminded me of a friends old dog leroy. after lots a begging for another dog or cat we finished up our job and promised to return. anyone can go volunteer at the green co animal shelter. they are always looking for people to help socialize all the animals so that they will be more easily adopted. merry christmas to all.
