The volunteer outings help shelter dogs get exercise, socialize and take a break from kennel life while giving staff a better understanding of each dog’s personality to help match them with adopters
“Our volunteers take shelter dogs on adventures that provide exercise, socialization, enrichment and a break from the kennel,” said the Rufftail Runners–LAPS Laredo in a statement. “Every outing helps us learn more about each dog’s personality so we can help them find the perfect forever home.”
