Work Your Tail Off: Sunday at the Carson Animal Shelter
Here's a great way to help out one of our busiest local animal shelters.
At 8 a.m. Sunday, The "Dawg Squad" will help repair, refurbish and clean up the Los Angeles County Animal Shelter at 216 W. Victoria St. in Gardena.
It's all part of this weekend's Big Sunday community event that identifies special projects for targeted community service.
From their email: "In the spirit of teamwork, community and love of all animals, come on out and lend a hand!"
If you want to help, you should sign up here first. Last I looked, they still need eight more volunteers.
The Carson shelter serves unicorporated county areas in the South Bay as well as the cities of Carson, Culver City, Gardena, Inglewood, Lawndale, Lomita, Marina Del Rey, Alos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates and Torrance.

About the Bloggers
Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.

Is this the shelter that houses MaryJane that pit that was beaten by that jerk in Hawthorne. Please advise. Thank you in advance.

Deedee, yes. The dog will be held at the county shelter in Carson (the same one in this post), but I'm not sure if the animal has been transferred there yet.
