It has been around since the early 1990s,when a college student got OASIS (Oberlin Aid to Strays in DistresS) started as a no-kill shelter. It's a dog shelter and currently has about 30. Thirty wonderful dogs waiting for a forever home. The dogs are well cared for by some volunteers but OASIS can always use more help. It can be for one or two mornings a week, from 7:30 or 8 am until about 10 am. Afternoon hours could be worked out and so could being put on an emergency sub list. The more people that the dogs come in contact with, the better. Just a few hours a week really,feeding,playing with,hugging,and hopefully walking the dogs. The dogs could really use some strong men to walk them since many are large, plus they need contact with men since currently all the volunteers are women. Won't anybody please consider helping out? The website is http://www.oasisanimalshelter.com/ and there are pictures of some of the dogs. The number to call is 440-775-4101. Leave a message about making a visit to see the dogs or to help out in some way. You can also email with any questions to Oasis@wmconnect.com. Caring for these rescued dogs is a very worthwhile endeavor. Written by: Firefall on March 12, 2008 9:05 PM View other posts from Firefall   Useful: 13 useful points.  Did you find it useful?
