Hi everyone. I've recently joined as a volunteer and have walked a couple of dogs so far. My background is in journalism and marketing and I'm aiming to help Friends of Cardiff Dogs Home to raise its profile so that we can get dogs rehomed more quickly and increase donations. Due to health issues my help will only be occasional, but as I'm not allowed to have a dog in my rented flat, this voluntary opportunity will at least give me some doggy time! I look forward to bumping into some of you in the near future. Mark

Hi Susie,
I'll certainly try. What time is it starting? Is it up to you how long and far you walk for?

'Bully Off' is 1.30pm ;D The route we take is down the Ely trail to Lansdown fields, which is a considerable walk, but peeps can about turn at any time ;D All dogs need to be back at CDH by 3.15pm

Ok, thanks. I very much doubt I could manage that distance, but will go as far as I can.

Hi all,
Thanks for the messages. I was really hoping to make it today for the SWALK, but am not just not well enough. I had everything ready to go, but am just not able to make it today. Really sorry. I don't think I'll be the most active volunteer, perhaps more of a virtual volunteer, doing stuff from home and online.
For those of you that go on the SWALK, I hope you have a great time and I look forward to seeing the pics :-)
Mark
