VOLUNTEERS
We have many opportunities available to volunteer. Whether it is “hands
on” or “behind the scenes,” we would love to have you join
us! Here
are a few of our volunteer opportunities:
Foster
Homes
MORE FOSTERS NEEDED!
We are always looking to add to our “foster families.” These
families provide a loving home for a Golden for a minimum of 5 days.
We will match a Golden to your lifestyle! All you have to do is provide
love, exercise and attention. Apply
Now!
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 Golden’s needs.
Become a Permanent Foster
Think about becoming a foster for one of our special needs dogs who has been determined “unadoptable”. You provide a loving him for the dog for the rest of his life and we pay all medical bills. You only have to provide food, toys, a bed and of course, the most important thing – LOVE. If you are interested in becoming a Permanent Foster, just check fill out the foster application and check the appropriate box.
Intake Team
Evaluate dogs wanting to come into the AGA program. Once accepted, become their Case Manager. You will arrange transportation to one of our vets, arrange all medical care and finally deliver your golden to their foster home.
Adoption
Team
Help us review applications and match the “perfect family”
with the “perfect” Golden.
Dog Walkers When our dogs are being boarded, they need extra hugs, kisses and
walks. All dog walking is done at PetLodge Pet Resort in Alpharettta. Walkers must be at least 18 years old.
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 goldens who need us.
Adoption Days On the first Sunday of each month we hold adoption days at the Petsmart in Buckhead for 2 hours. This is a day where people who are interested in adopting a Golden from us can come and meet our dogs up close and personal. You can come help make these very important introductions and become a Golden Matchmaker. You must be 16 years of age to participate at Adoption Day.
