Hey Guys!

     So i started the first steps of my service today.  I'm working at the Mohawk & Hudson Humane Society.  When I first got there on Tuesday I had no clue what to expect.  First we looked at the animals and then I sat through an informational session for people who want to volunteer.  They had one dog that really caught my eye.  There was this beautiful three year old boxer named Bitsy.  She was almost all white with a little patch of brown on her face.  And she was deaf.  Seeing her reminded me of how much i miss my dogs at home.  
    Today was a lot more crazy.  I got a tour of the whole place.  You would never believe how many cats are behind all those different doors.  The people who work at the shelter are amazing.  They are all so friendly and devoted.  While i was there today Bitsy got adopted.  She was so excited to be out of that cage and was wagging her tail and jumping every where. I go back tomorrow and I can't wait.  For now i'm just getting adjusted and trying to figure out where i'm going to fit in.
