Care for sheltered dogs and their dental hygiene one tug toy at a time!
Sustainable Development Goal - 15
Experience Formats:
Approximately 6.5 million companion animals enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year. Of those, approximately 3.3 million are dogs and 3.2 million are cats.
The good news is that we estimate the number of dogs and cats entering U.S. shelters annually has declined from approximately 7.2 million.
Raise The Woof is a WeHero Volunteer Event delivering tug toys and dental chews for dogs in need. Many hours for dogs in a shelter require many hours of entertainment. Unfortunately, many commercial tug toys are made only for medium to large dogs and are of materials that can often be hard on a dog’s teeth causing dental and health issues at the time of adoption.
The fleece toys we’ll be making together, however, can be made for any size dog and are soft. Plus, the friction of the cloth against a dog’s teeth can help keep the teeth cleaner! Join us for this hands-on experience supporting dogs in need!
We work alongside the world's best nonprofits and manage every aspect of the volunteer experience. We deliver impact and create memories for years to come.
