WOULD YOU LIKE TO HELP AUGIES DOGGIES? YOU can assist us in so many different and helpful ways….. Whether you have lots of time to help out, or just a few spare hours every now and then, we could use your help. 1. Become a weekly volunteer to help feed and look after the animals. 2. Help provide transportation for pets requiring relocation or medical attention. 3. Foster a pet temporarily. We very often have dogs that need a home and good socialization skills for a short while until they are adopted. If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out a Volunteer Application and send it to us. We will contact you as soon as your application is reviewed.   Provide a foster home to a pet in need: We are  in need of foster homes. Foster homes provide a temporary refuge to an animal in need while they wait to be adopted. These are animals whose time has run out at the local shelter and they are in dire need of rescue. Augie’s Doggies Rescue will pay for all the veterinary work and provide you with tons of support and assistance from other group members. We would ask that you provide transportation to any needed veterinary appointments as well as meet a volunteer with the dog to attend adoption fairs. You provide the love and socialization that the dog needs. Your job is to provide the animal with daily love and care. Please fill out a foster home application and send it to us if you are interested, a coordinator will call you once your application is received. (foster application) Fundraising We hold 3-4 main fundraisers each year. We are always in need of volunteers for these events. Community Service If you have an idea for a community service project with your students or civic group, we’d love to hear from you! If you are interested, please email us...
