Palmetto Animal League

Volunteering at an animal shelter comes with a positive and negative feeling. The positive feeling is loving these animals because they deserve just as much love as our animals at home. Then, the negative feeling is not being able to bring them home. Taking them on walks, throwing the ball, giving them belly rubs, and just giving them love is all it takes to make a shelter animal's day!
