Rostered basis at Ingleside shelter Doggiewood. Join our roster on a regular day to suit you. You must be over 18 years old, have experience with dogs, excellent dog-handling skills, and an understanding of dog behaviour. You should be able to remain calm under pressure (it is like being on playground duty with a bunch of unruly kids, some who like to scrap, and need a firm but kind hand to keep them in line). You will feed them, cuddle and calm the new and nervous ones, give them loads of love and generally keep the peace! You should be fit, able to bend/lift, and willing to do general housekeeping to keep the place looking good!

But a very generous printer (Focus Press, South Strathfield) who have provided us with lovely coloured posters asking people to adopt or foster a doggie.
We need people willing to take 5, 10 or more posters and put them up in vets clinics, pet supply shops, schools, & community notice boards in their area.
Just one poster in Gladesville generated 6 calls - and resulted in 1 dog finding a new home - so please call us if you can help cover Sydney with the Doggie Rescue message!
We will mail posters to you - it is that easy! Call Josh on 0417 060 284.
