Friends of Animals League

Want to do good in your community and get a regular furry-friend fix? Become a volunteer at the Dumb Friends League!

When you volunteer at the Dumb Friends League, you’re joining a family of volunteers and staff committed to providing love and support for the homeless pets and equines in our care. As a volunteer, you’ll be rewarded for your efforts through recognition events and awards—and best of all, you’ll be helping homeless animals receive the loving care and second chances for happiness they deserve.
