Alpinemist Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 We'e just made the move to France and used to volunteer at our local shelter. When I say vounteer I mean almost all my wife's spare time was spent there and loads by me also. It was a big part of our lives.Does anyone know if there is a shelter near us? We live near Morzine in Haute Savoire region.What is the protocol for volunteering here in France, just walking dogs or can you really get involved ?

Christine Animal Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Here are the shelters in Haute SavoieI expect each shelter has its own ways, but yes you can really get involved ! Ask Merlin, Jouals and Rowan on here! [:D]Any help is more than appreciated and needed. Welcome and please let us know how you get on.

Jouals Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Christine is right! It won't be long before you find yourself involved with your local refuge - good luck! Most refuges need all the help they can get! One tip, make sure you are affiliated or "adhere" to your chosen refuge for insurance purposes - if you are walking refuge dogs, you need insurance cover.Jouals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
