Do you love animals? Do you want to help shelter dogs have some 'fun' time out? We need your help! Dog Walkers take dogs to the CountyPets Playground to make sure they are properly socialized and exercised. This opportunity requires a high level of physical activity. Volunteers will be encouraged to leash train each dog as they walk them to the playground and give them some play time out of the kennel at least twice a week.
Please visit this web site to fill out the volunteer application:

About Harris County Pets
Location:
612 Canino Rd., Houston, TX 77076, US
Mission Statement
Harris County Veterinary Public Health works in close partnership with the community to create a safe and healthy environment for people and animals.
Description
We accomplish our mission through bite case investigations, disease surveillance, animal law enforcement, stray animal control, education, rabies vaccination, policy development and registration of dogs and cats within unincorporated Harris County.
VPH is committed to providing humane, compassionate, quality care to animals in our facility. We attempt to return lost pets to their owners and strive to place as many of our unclaimed shelter animals as possible into new "forever homes" through our adoption program, the help of our rescue partners and transfers to other animal sheltering agencies.
For those animals that need a little extra "TLC" or veterinary care before they are suitable for adoption, we have a robust animal fostering team made up of dedicated staff and volunteers.
