This young woman came all the way to India for about 10 days to work as a volunteer for IDA at the Deonar Centre.What she accomplished in those few days was amazing. Drawing on her experience of working at an Animal Shelter in NY, she suggested many ideas that are proving to be of great help to our animals.
For instance, we have started a 10 day course of medication to prevent kennel cough in our infant pups. This seems to be quite helpful in preventing and curing the start of kennel cough. She also demonstrated really great methods of cleaning the enclosures and told us a number of ways to keep the cleaned rooms as sanitized as possible throughout the day.
Watching her work was an education in itself and there was definately an upsurge of good health within the most vulnerable place at IDA, the sick puppy pen.
Zephreny even went out a number of times on our mobile medical van and assisted the doctor with his patients all over the city. Now that's a volunteer! Hope she will be an inspiration to many others wanting to help in animal welfare.
