We have a wonderful new volunteer working with us at the shelter. She has been doing some training and socializing with our dogs and has given us some wonderful feedback. She is giving our dogs some great opportunities to find forever homes. Here are a couple of photos of two she worked with last week.

Looking for a foster or loving, permanent home for this little dog. She was dumped today after her owner was told the shelter was full. She's very lucky to have been found by a sweet family who is temporarily fostering her until a placement can be found. Let's find her a forever home ❤️

If you are interested, please call or text the Osceola Vet clinic at 417-646-8239.
