I think what Derby has been lacking is a plan for using those volunteers. I think we need <br />a strong presence in charge of the pound, working under the Police Department, who can get the volunteers organized, get the computer set up so we can "advertise" our strays for adoption, and get the other many things going that are required. I'm traveling right now but I plan to bug the Mayor and the Police Chief when I get home. These are good men and they love animals - let's go!Clearly Derbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06774047300124906619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2975514036099337494.post-61094106135296201092012-04-19T15:41:14.694-07:002012-04-19T15:41:14.694-07:00Mangomama has a great idea, which inspires me to f...Mangomama has a great idea, which inspires me to further ask: does Derby have volunteers helping at its animal shelter (and if not, would the city be able/open to receive them)? Perhaps some folks who are concerned on the dog pound issue would be willing to spearhead a volunteer initiative and create a program to improve conditions (cleaning up to reduce smells, collecting items that could be used in the care of the animals, etc.). Such a program could save animals' lives and help the town stay within its budget constraints, all while building a greater sense of community.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484536328173664592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2975514036099337494.post-57056656691756308622012-04-19T09:14:37.162-07:002012-04-19T09:14:37.162-07:00MAKES SENSE - Thank You!

They evaluate the prospective pet with visits and more, take a quality photo and use social media to post these on Facebook which allows for broadcasting to animal lovers who can either donate, transport, foster or ADOPT! <br /><br />I was thinking our fellow dog-lovers might want to be in on working with the shelter and social media to properly place these pets.mangomamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14691389329178950746noreply@blogger.com
