Son will be home from college for just a few days over Thanksgiving break.  He needs to get in 15 hours of documentable community service, required by his college..  He loves dogs, is there a local dog shelter that uses volunteers?I figured we might pick up a few hours on TG day at a shelter having a meal.Love to hear other ideas. 4951

Twyla's Rescue looks for people on weekends. Montgomery County Animal Shelter is always looking for volunteers, but I would contact them now & see what the criteria is to volunteer. 4951

I always thought community service hours meant you volunteered with a non profit or picked up trash or did something to help the community, not volunteer at a business. 4951

It's a shame he won't be home on the 15th. The Coach K Foundation is in need of volunteers for the 2nd annual fun run at Riverwood. 4951

Most dog shelters will be closed on Thanksgiving.  Also, I know that the Harris County shelter requires you to attend an orientation session prior to volunteering.   4951

The shelters and kennels need volunteers especially at the holidays because so many people are busy or traveling.  But most all require training first.HAAM may take him  but it obviously is not dogs. 4951

@lola: Sounds like a school project and not criminal community service sentence. Might be very different criteria. 4951

Thanks for all the great ideas. Hoping something works with Brat. Son is hoping to be a Vet one day. If Brat can't put him to work, I do appreciate all the suggestions.
