Review for Northwoods Humane Society, Wyoming, MN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been a volunteer at Northwoods since January 2001. I've enjoyed helping in many ways, including dog walking, cat socialization, adoption counseling, fundraising, public relations, fostering kittens, grant writing and serving on the Board of Directors for 5 years. Both of my beloved cats, Penny & Tilly, are alumni from Northwoods! I've also donated money to the shelter whenever I can. I've always loved that EVERY animal is spayed or neutered before adoption. This is wonderful, but costly and imperative in the mission of animal welfare and pet overpopulation! Northwoods has very few staff and is mostly volunteers. Donations are used to pay for everything from the light bill to computer ink to gasoline for transporting animals to vet appointments for exams and spay & neuter surgeries! Staff and Volunteers work incredibly hard to ensure that each dog, cat, puppy or kitten are cared for while they await their "fur-ever" home. RESCUE, REHABILITATE, REHOME...
