What Kind of Volunteer Help Is Needed?

While fosters are our #1 need, we also need talented help with transportation, fund raising, event coordination, animal care and rehabilitation, and general office administration. If you can help, please contact us or fill out the online volunteer application now. The help we need from you includes:

• Animal Behaviorists/Trainers: Evaluate Dobermans and help us address occasional temperament and behavior issues.

• Administrative Helpers: Everything from spreadsheets and forms to filing and thank-you notes. A backbone of rescue.

• Dog Buddies: Walk, play with, transport, and socialize a rescue in foster care. We do not have a facility, so this is done at foster homes, parks, and occasionally at boarding facilities.

• Drivers: Give Dobermans rides from shelters and surrendering owners to vets and foster and forever homes.

• Event Planners and Staffers: Coordinate or attend adoption events, fundraising events, and special fun events.

• Fundraisers: Guide and inspire us as you design and implement targeted fund raising campaigns; fund raise for dogs with special needs.

• Phone Interviewers: conduct pre-placement phone interviews with prospective adopters and are provided a guide and training.

• IT Professionals: Keep our network, website, and forums running.

• Home Visitors: After training, and with a guide, visit potential adopter homes to meet with them and ensure they live in a positive environment for a Doberman.

• Photographers and Videographers: Take irresistible shots of dogs and create videos that help our dogs find wonderful homes.

• Copywriters: Write Doberman biographies, website content, and blog content.

• Digital Designers: Help create website content, fliers, and other attractive materials to spread our message.
