Petsmart's National Adoption Weekend

Volunteers are still needed for February 11, 12 and 13th at the Petsmart in Cherry Hill (across from Cherry Hill Mall between Target and Kohls).   We can be there from 11 am to 4 pm each day.  We could use people to transport dogs from the shelter to Petsmart and hang out with them in the store and at our table. Or you could come to Petsmart to man the table and hang out with a dog.  Even if you can spare and hour or two, we could use your help.
