Julie Tishkoff spends a lot of her free time giving back to others in her community and that includes more than just humans. She is an animal rights activist who is interested in the welfare of disenfranchised animals in her area, and so she invests her energy into extensive volunteer work with local animal shelters. Below is a list of duties she performs at these shelters:
Walking
One of Julie Tishkoff’s primary duties at these shelters is to walk, feed and provide basic care to abused and neglected animals. Most of these shelters do not have the manpower to walk every dog each day, leaving them without exercise that can leave them less appealing for adoption. By giving each dog a ten-minute walk each day and spending most of her late afternoons playing with them, Julie Tishkoff has helped keep hundreds of dogs healthy and adoptable.
Basic Grooming
The conditions in these shelters can be questionable at times, which is why basic grooming is more important as ever for both the health of the dog and its neighbors. For basic grooming, Julie often bathes animals, clips their toenails and cleans their ears if the situation calls for it.
Playing
A big part of the animal shelter volunteer experience is actually the most enjoyable part of all- simply playing with the animals. It has been proven that playing with cats and dogs increases their social skills as well as their overall sense of happiness, which increases their chances of being adopted.
