Our Lady of the Lake Brownie Troop 20793 Visits Wayne Township Animal Shelter!

The Wayne Township Animal Shelter was very happy to have Troop 20793 visit our facility and so glad to see their passion and love for animals.

 

On Saturday, May 19, 2012 the Wayne Township Animal Shelter welcomed six members of the Our Lady of the Lake Brownie Troop 20793 to take a tour of the shelter and give them the opportunity to meet many of our furry friends and shelter employees and volunteers as well.  The girls arrived with very generous donations of food, toys, cleaning supplies and even a monetary contribution as well, which was greatly appreciated by the shelter. 

The troop got to see our kitten room, meet & greet room, office, cat room and they even assisted with filling food bowls and treats for our dogs in the kitchen area.  They each got the opportunity to meet Lady, our extremely friendly Maltese, up close and personal as she gave them all kisses to show her appreciation.  Two of our shelter volunteers, Spencer Dietz and Barb Canfield, had the pleasure of escorting the troop around the shelter, answering their questions and listening to the girl’s personal experiences with pet ownership and some of their own funny furry stories.

One of the Brownie’s even exclaimed at the end of the tour, “This was the best field trip ever!” and they all left the shelter with smiles on their faces.  The Wayne Township Animal Shelter was very happy to have Troop 20793 visit our facility and so glad to see their passion and love for animals.  We really enjoyed their enthusiasm and hope we’ve inspired them be future responsible pet owners and to adopt their next furry family member!
