Lowell Humane Society Updates

Being a volunteer at LHS has been really really great. I mean. Really great. I've been walking dogs on Tuesday mornings for a little over a month now. I love spending time with them and getting them out of their kennels. Even if it's just for a little while, I try to tire them out (which has been pretty easy as it's been so warm!) so they can hopefully relax. As the shelter itself is small, it's even easier for them to get stressed out and anxious.

I also took over the managing of their Instagram account, joined the Dog Team (promoting the welfare and enrichment and hopefully the adoption of the dogs), and am helping with the Beer & Wine Tasting that will be taking place this fall in Lowell to support the shelter. This coming Thursday there's a Koncert for Keeno, one of my favorite dogs there, who recently had knee surgery. I've also started getting in touch with people that have adopted dogs in the past to see if they have any questions, issues, or just want to give us a lovely update of their new pet- all of those conversations have been great, and it warms my heart to see these animals in the homes they always deserved.

My foster cat was just spayed yesterday and I am picking her up this morning. She's a sweet and very shy peanut of a girl, so I hope she did ok...

Now...how do I get paid to do these things?? :)

Here are some of my favorite guys and gals:


Here's my foster gal, Bear (ugh I wish I could change her name...I like "Millie" or "Tillie")


This is Buddy, a super mellow Shepherd/Chow mix


This is Sarah and her sweet ears- a surprisingly calm chihuahua mix

LOBO! I actually think he was just adopted, he's is the sweetest boy who spins when he is stressed so I know his new family will be great to calm him down and figure out his stressors :)
