Volunteer OLD
ADOPTION TEAM
Help us review applications.
TAXI TEAMS
Help is always needed to transport dogs once they have been approved into the program. Can you occasionally spare a couple of hours during the week? On a weekend? You must be 18 years old to be on the taxi team.
FUNDRAISING
Unfortunately, without money we can’t help all the dogs who need us.
HOME VISITS
A very important step of our adoption process is our home visit. We have volunteers visit prospective families to ensure that their home environment is compatible with a Great Pyrenees’ needs.
INTAKE TEAM
Work with Intake Director to evaluate dogs in shelters and with owners to be considered for our rescue. Once accepted, assist the Intake Director with arranging for transportation and gathering the medical records required to bring a dog into GPRA’s care.
DOG WALKERS
When our dogs are being boarded, they need extra hugs, kisses and walks. All dog walking is done at a boarding facility in Alpharetta. Walkers must be at least 18 years old.
ADOPTION DAYS
Approximately twice a month we hold adoption days at PetSmart You must be 16 years of age to participate at Adoption Day.
SOCIAL MEDIA
We need some talented volunteers to take us into the new generation of contact via social media.
SPECIAL EVENTS
We need creative people to come up with new and fun ideas for fundraisers or get-togethers and to plan these events.
VOLUNTEERS
We have many opportunities available to volunteer.
If you would like to volunteer, please complete the “Volunteer form”, or the foster application or e-mail us at info@greatpyratlanta.com.
FOSTER HOMES
We are always looking to add to our “foster families.” These families provide a loving home for a dog until their “Furever” home is found. All you have to do is provide love, food, exercise and attention. We pay for any necessary medical costs. In addition, any expenditure you may incur (including food) is tax deductible.
