Volunteer Needs

  • We Need Foster Homes.  Can you help us - even for a weekend or a week?   Do you know of a neighbor, friend or family member that might be interested?   Summer has arrived and many people go on vacation (including our regular foster families), so the need for foster families is greater than ever!   This also seems to be the time of year that goldens appear in multiples at area shelters and we can only rescue those that we have space for.

  • Van drivers.  Rescue needs van drivers to transport dogs between North Dallas and GOVRO in Scurry.   The transport team coordinates who will be driving the transport van based on individual availability. Typically, the transport occurs Saturday morning and Tuesday (anytime), but there are occasions when we need someone on Sunday or Wednesday.   If you have a few hours that you could volunteer to help out the team, it would be much appreciated.   Rescue provides the van, crates, and gas. You provide the time.

  • Fundraiser Coordinator  We are looking for two or three people to work on fundraiser ideas and implementing those ideas once they are approved by the Board.

  • Sporting Chance Golf Tournament Volunteer   It is time to begin planning this year’s golf tournament.   If you would like to help out with the behind the scenes work to coordinate this event, please send us an email with the subject "Golf Tournament".

  • Newsletter article contributors  Do you have an idea for an article to include in the quarterly newsletter?  If so, please send your idea to the Rescue mailbox.   You may be asked to write the article as well!

  • Committee Members  Become actively involved with the committee of your choice: Intake, Adoption, Follow-up, Newsletter, Website, etc. There’s something to interest everyone!

On the Weekends

  • Help out at the kennels by bathing, grooming, walking or obedience training a Golden.
  • Work with potential adopters and assist in the adoption paperwork.

Your time is valuable, and we know it. We appreciate all our volunteers.


Our Kennel is Located in Far North Carrollton. Try volunteering once a month. You'll get hooked.
