MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1999 - We need Three Kennel Helpers so that there are at least two plus myself seven days a week--at least ONE if there's a no-show!
Having to work the entire day alone on several occasions this past summer due to unforeseen "labor problems" (newly hired kennel helpers, for example, not showing up for work) has finally made me realize that at age 59 I cannot do this job any longer without help--a lot of help since our shelter now cares for so many doggies--45 as of October 3, 1999! Here's what happens each and every day of the year:
Daily Routine
4:25 A.M. - First employee arrives.
4:30 - 5:30 - Food preparation for breakfast for 45 dogs.
5:30 - 7:00 - Feeding of 45 dogs.
7:00 A.M. - Second employee arrives.
7:00 - 11:00 - Dog walks by one helper; kennel cleaning rounds by the second helper.
