It went along well however it was very wet from the previous day's rain so when it came to walking puppies it was extremely difficult to stay clean, not that i minded :) Although there were several new puppies that wanted to play we could not put them into the doggie runs as it was muddy and the grass would be torn up.
It had started to rain later in the day so i actually had to walk them around the kennels and once that was finnished I started to hang out with the cats/kittens which were conveniently indoors.
On a sadder note talking to one of the other volunteers i was informed that one of the dogs i had walked the week before had been put down.
'Jimmy' was thought to have not liked being caged and it drove him to get a bit nippy, leading to aggression which could not be tamed in the situation he was in. This gave me a perspective of what happens on a darker note when dogs do not get adopted and made the job that i do that much more important to me.
To conclude i shall add some photos of some of the new dogs arriving at the kemps creek shelter and ofcourse Jimmy, may he rest in peace <3
