  • 1.  Paid Foster Field Trips

    Posted 17 hours ago
    Hi all! Do any of you have a paid field trip program for staff? If you do, would you mind if I reached out to learn more about the logistics of your program?
    I would love to get something going at my shelter so staff can have a paid hour every month to take one of our dogs out on a field trip- either around the building or in a park offsite. I think it would be a good way for staff to get to know the dogs better, and of course, it's going to be super helpful for the dogs to get out for a while. Any and all constructive help/feedback is welcome!
    Pictured below is Karen! She was my first Field Trip buddy and we took her to a picnic meeting.

    Hi, 

    We don't have a program like this, as we are a cat rescue, but would love to hear if any other cat rescues have something similar? 

    Thanks in advance!
