Volunteer
One of the best ways to make a difference in a Shelter dogs life is to donate your time.
Support the Medical Fund
When you donate, you support the lifesaving work we are doing for homeless dogs at WCDS. Donations to this fund provide veterinary care to every dog that comes through our doors. From core vaccinations to lifesaving surgeries this fund allows our dogs to live happy, healthy lives.

Our dogs are always in need of supplies to keep them fed, safe, and comfortable. Our Amazon wish lists are updated regularly with the most needed items.
