“When you make a difference in a life… you're making a difference in your own as well.”
Join the Blue Waters Team
Our dogs are cared for 24/7 by a mix of dedicated staffing and volunteers — and our volunteers still make a huge difference. Volunteers do home visits for adoption and foster applicants, and they share what they know about dog behavior with foster caregivers and adopters. Every hour you give helps a rescued dog get one step closer to a home of its own.
Want to help? Contact us to become a volunteer today!
