Good morning everyone😄 I was extremely happy to meet the dogs at PAWS!! After meeting all of them I trained on the specifics of how to clean up the dog area before they open at noon for the day. I've been in Minot with family so can't wait to get back to volunteering at PAWS. Anyhoo, hope you all have a very blessed day!!! Oh the photo is one of the dogs at PAWS for adoption. She's a beautiful dog🐾🐶💝 Her name is Bella!!

This is something i would love to do - my little pooch is my reason to get up. My anxiety and lack of confidence stop me volunteering.

Well done you- they are all so precious and innocent.

I feel the same way! I have horrible anxiety. I know exactly how ya feel. I volunteer to help the dogs and to conquer my anxiety. Hope it will help! Like you said dogs are the only reason I get up everyday so this is my way to give back to them. I make them homemade treats and hope to brighten their day! Thanks for the message.

I think that's just wonderful. After my partner died I lost my " get up and go" and really I've become my own worst enemy by isolating myself. Lost one of my dogs just after that so anxiety through the roof. I need a kick up the a*** so thankyou for sharing. I am going to look into my local animal rescue centres and give myself that kick 🏃‍♀️.

Peace and love to you and all our furry little angels 🐾🐩🐱🦊🐤🐐🐾

Oh I'm soooo sorry for your losses! My condolences!! Omg that's a lot to handle and I completely understand why you would have such anxiety! Your so brave to want to shake the anxiety and get feeling better. I don't think you need a kick up the a..! Lol. But yea working at the shelter does bring joy. Seeing those dogs just wanting a home so desperately breaks my ❤! Hopefully you can find joy in helping the dogs or cats. To want to help after dealing with so much is amazing!!!!

I know. I would have to come home with them all. People can be so cruel it makes me despair and breaks my heart - these little innocent and precious creatures that look to us for love and protection - how ? Why is humamity so god damned awful always wanting to kill /maim.

Ill never get my head around it.....

Anyway to keep the good vibe going - hope all u dog-squad guys have a fab day.

Thanks for sharing
