Volunteering
The Ontario branch of Aussie Rescue and Placement Helpline, Inc. (ARPH) is a non-profit organization that is composed of volunteers who are dedicated to the welfare of the Australian Shepherd breed.
ARPH relies on its volunteers who give selflessly of their time, talents, energy and homes. We need your help and the help of every Aussie lover to rescue as many dogs as possible. Please consider becoming a volunteer. There are a number of opportunities available.
Rescue Representatives -- These volunteers evaluate whether dogs are eligible for the ARPH program and are
responsible for their placement.
Foster Homes -- These volunteers care for ARPH dogs in their own homes and may at times need to help their newly rescued Aussies transition into a new life. This may involve socialization, basic training, taking the dog to a veterinarian and later speaking to the potential adopters. They work hand in hand with the Rescue Representatives. Veterinary expenses are reimbursed; foster homes supply food. If you're interested in fostering please fill out our Application Form.
General Volunteers -- This group performs a multitude of jobs. They may do home visits, help with transporting a dog, fundraise, maintain webpages, help at rescue booths and whatever other jobs may arise. This is a great way to begin in rescue and acquaint yourself with how it works. If you would like to help in any way, please fill out the Application Form.
