On Friday\u2019s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2, Vice President Matt Opsahl said, not to let pets outdoors longer than needed so they don\u2019t have \u201caccidents,\u201d in the house.<\/p>\n
He said the animal\u2019s paw pads freeze quickly, adding that road chemicals and road salt burn their paws.<\/p>\n
Hay bales may be used for insulation around the outside of dog houses.<\/p>\n
Make sure anti-freeze is out of the reach of pets in garages, as the chemical can be deadly if ingested.<\/p>\n
He noted that at the shelter the dogs are let outside for a short time, and then back inside.<\/p>\n
Donations of blankets are welcome and may be dropped off at Hugo\u2019s or at the shelter.<\/p>\n
On another topic, he said the shelter is looking for a paid position for a person to work every other weekend, from 7-a.m., to noon, to take care of the dogs.<\/p>\n
Contact the James River Humane Society for more information at 252-0747, or drop off a resume, or an application form from Jamestown Jobs Service, to the shelter, located off the I-94 Bloom Exit.<\/p>\n
He pointed out that volunteers are needed to work evenings.<\/p>\n
Presently the shelter is full with 15 dogs, and 25 cats.<\/p>\n
