PM Dog Care Team Members report to the Dog Care Coordinator and help to maintain the general health and welfare of the dogs in our care at the Animal Centre. In part this is achieved by participating in our Canine Enrichment Program to provide mental and physical stimuli to these dogs. To support the wide range of dog behaviours and needs we encounter at the GTHS, PM Dog Care Team Members complete a Dog Care Program*; quickly progressing from Green dogs (ie. puppies and seniors who are easy to walk and handle) to Yellow dogs (ie. young, rambunctious, pullers who can be slightly difficult to walk and handle), then work through the Orange and Purple levels at their own pace, with the ultimate goal of working with Red dogs (ie. strong, reactive dogs that are difficult to walk and handle, and that may have other behavioural issues). *Training is required upon joining the Dog Care Team and will be required intermittently to progress through the Dog Care Program.

Overview & Impact: The Humane Education Program is an excellent way to connect with youth in our community and teach them about empathy, compassion and responsible pet ownership by focusing on the human-animal bond.

Based on the Humane Education Volunteer’s skill set and chosen course / club, they may support this important GTHS program at our Collingwood Animal Centre and / or in the community. The majority of our programming takes place onsite at our Animal Centre.

Position Summary: Reporting to the Humane Education Specialist, Humane Education Volunteers assist and engage youth aged between 7-17 enrolled in a range of GTHS after-school programs. The youth age group supported will depend on the course / club the HE Volunteer selects.

Time Commitment based on area(s) of interest: 8 consecutive weeks’ commitment from February 2025 is required (dates will be provided at time of application or enquiry). Volunteers will be expected to arrive 15 minutes before and stay approximately 15 minutes after the club / course session time.
