[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 530821, member: 84"] How about signing up for your local no kill shelter as a volunteer and help them train their dogs for their new forever homes? You could help assess their temperament too because sadly in many situations there are untrained staff doing a pretty lousy job of this. Many dogs come in abused/neglected and could use some basic manners and someone to work with them rebuilding trust with humans. It would help increase the odds that their forever homes will indeed be forever. You never know, while helping to save so many other dogs, you may come across the special one perfectly suited for search and rescue. Our no kill shelter is always begging for volunteers for everything from dog walking to cleaning them up and washing out their areas. I know first hand they really would benefit from a trained person doing some basic obedience with the dogs and assessing them for whether or not it would be a good idea to actually adopt them out into a new family. Sadly they let far too many leave their facility that should never have been rehomed. [/QUOTE]
