I miss those dogs...?

Question

Two dogs wandered into my backyard yesterday and they were the absolute best dogs ever! Sweet and cute, a boy and a girl. One was a mutt and one was a lab-pitt bull mix (this one was the sweetest). They were found laying next to eachother. Anyways, we fed them and we gave them water and I played with them all day yesterday, and today the owners came and pick them up. And for some reason I fell completely sad and lonely! I asked my parents if we could get another dog but they absolutely refused. How can I get those dogs off my mind.

I am probably being stupid for asking but hey i really don't care.

Answer 1

Hey - I know how you feel.  I can't have pets either, so what I do is volunteer at our local animal shelter/humane society.  Just go to the one closest to you and tell them you would like to volunteer.  You will probably have to take a little course so they can show you the ropes.  Then, you can come in whenever you want and for however long you want during their open hours.  You usually just spend one-on-one time with the animals, but sometimes you can help feed and groom them!  It's a lot of fun, and it looks good on a college resume!
