Kennel Help

Duties at the kennel include cleaning the kennels inside/out and feeding/watering the dogs. This is done every morning from 8:30am to about 11:00am. Only after the dogs are fed and the kennels are cleaned can volunteers walk, play and bathe the dogs. If volunteers are interested in only walking the dogs, we ask them to please come after 11:00am as to not get in the way of cleaning and feeding. From 4:00pm to 5:00pm is closing down time, which consists of making sure dogs’ water containers are full, they have blankets, cages are newspapered, and any and all messes are cleaned up. •There is also laundry, yard maintenance, and general house cleaning that needs to be done on a regular basis.

About us

Dog Orphans, Inc., was founded over 40 years ago by a small group of animal lovers dedicated to saving dogs from pain and suffering. We house stray, homeless and unwanted dogs until suitable permanent homes are found. We teach and promote the importance of responsible dog ownership, including spaying and neutering. We do this without considering euthanasia unless a dog’s health or temperament is seriously compromised.
