FIELD TRIPS FOR SHELTER DOGS

During my vacation in Kauai, I had the opportunity to volunteer with the local Humane Society. The Kauai Human Society offers a shelter dog field trip program. With this program, volunteers are able to take shelter dogs that are spayed/neutered and over 6 months old out for the day. By providing these field trip experiences for shelter dogs, the animals receive exercise and affection, while the volunteers have an amazing experience exploring the island with a fun loving dog. The dogs are provided with ‘Adopt Me’ vests that are worn and help advertise the pet for adoption outside of the shelter.

I was matched with Pressley and took her out for a fun day exploring the island. We started our day by going to the local Starbucks to pick up a pup-cup then headed out to Moalepe/Kuilau Trail. We ended our day with a nice nap by the beach listening to the waves.
