Eric Pertnoy has been volunteering for the local animal rescue for the past couple of years. He loves cats and dogs, but in his small apartment he cannot have any pets of his own. In order to fulfill that void, Eric Pertnoy spends a weekend here and there at the local rescue. His efforts are so appreciated by those who manage the animal rescue.
While at the animal rescue, Eric Pertnoy pitches in by walking the dogs all through the park. Sometimes if the rescue is particularly busy during the week, the dogs have not been walked nearly enough. Eric Pertnoy arrives first thing in the morning and grabs as many leashes as he can manage. The dogs are so grateful to get outside and are jumping and barking in happiness. Eric Pertnoy lets them sniff everything imaginable and even lets them off-leash in the areas where they are allowed.
Another aspect of volunteering at the animal rescue is helping at the adoption events. Eric Pertnoy especially enjoys these events as he gets to help potential pet owners chose the perfect animal for their home. What he really loves to see are the small children choosing their first kitten or puppy to bring home with them. Eric Pertnoy teaches the new owners all about the animal they have chosen and how to properly care for it.
Occasionally, Eric Pertnoy will foster a cat or dog for the weekend at his home. While it is a small space, Eric Pertnoy can make an exception if it is only for a short period of time. The danger for him is getting too attached to the animals during these weekend stays. Someday, Eric Pertnoy wants to have a house of his own with a large fenced in yard that can hold a few dogs at a time. Eric Pertnoy would like to adopt a whole family from the animal rescue!
