#ShelterDogsDeserveBetter

The Dogs Are Waiting

Right now, in your local shelter, dogs are waiting—for comfort, for connection, for someone to care. Volunteer support is crucial to their daily care and emotional well-being. Even a short visit can make a big difference. Reach out to your local shelter volunteer coordinator to learn how to help.

At Project Shelterlight, we’re committed to bringing unheard voices to the table—those of the dogs, the volunteers, the staff, and the community members who see the need for safer, more compassionate sheltering and animal control practices. We want to see our communities improve how they care for lost, abandoned, and at-risk dogs. Whether you walk a dog, share their story, or help shape better policies, your effort matters. The dogs are counting on us.

Please spay/neuter your dogs and register them with your local jurisdiction.
