I went to the animal shelter in Pärnu today to help out with the dogs and cats. When I first got there, I got the impression that they didn't actually want or need anyone's help. As soon as I arrived and asked how I could help, one of the ladies said that I couldn't do any of the "official" things, because they can't let "just anyone" do that kind of stuff. However, then there was another girl who told me that I could walk the dogs and play with them and that I could also go see the kittens and cats.
So, because I'm not 18, my mom had to give them her signature saying that she allows me to be with the animals and that she is aware of the dangers.
Then one of the girls showed me all the dogs and then showed me one that I should take for a walk. The dog that I took for a walk was called Härma. We went to walk in the forest. It was so nice and quiet; I really enjoyed exploring the forest with the dog. It was a bit different walking this dog than it is when I walk my dog, because this dog wasn't really trained so it pulled on the leash a lot.
When we got back I took the dog to the play area and played fetch with him. It was so cool because Härma was really good at running after the ball and then bringing it back to me.
After we got tired of playing, I took Härma back to his cage. Then I went to see the kittens. They were so so so so adorable. There was one kitten who was so nice and friendly and I just sat there petting it for half an hour. I wish I could have taken it home!!
I'm planning on going again tomorrow :)
