Volunteer Spotlight - Thank You Remi, Reid, and Susan!

At least twice a week, Remi, Reid, and their mother Susan come to the Humane Society of Ventura County to spend time with the dogs and cats. This family of animal lovers started volunteering when their youngest turned 10 years old, “We just love the animals and it’s so much fun to come and volunteer here.” Remi and Reid enjoy spending time with the animals and often can’t wait to come again. Their enthusiasm to help these animals is contagious and can put a smile on anyone’s face.
