Volunteers needed for fence builds in Forsyth County

Fur-Ever Friends of North Carolina is currently working with Dogs Deserve Better and The Coalition to Unchain Dogs to better the lives of chained dogs in Forsyth County.

Dogs Deserve Better, 2003 First Place Winner of the ASPCA/Chase Pet Protector Award, is a national non-profit organization working to free chained and penned dogs.  They are seeking volunteers to help with fencing projects in Forsyth County, NC.  

The Coalition to Unchain Dogs, is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which seeks to improve the lives of chained dogs by building free fences for them and freeing them from their chains.  Free spay/neuter and basic vaccinations are provided.

What we need:

  • Volunteers to help with transporting dogs to/from the Forsyth County Spay/Neuter Clinic 
  • Volunteers to help with post hole digging
  • Volunteers to help with fence builds
  • Volunteers to help with transporting materials (musty have a truck)
  • Volunteers to help with follow up

We’re also looking for a lead fence builder.  This would involve determining where potential fences will be placed, purchasing and transporting materials, instructing other volunteers at fence builds, insuring fences are built accurately and escape proof, and overseeing the project from start to finish.

Currently, we build at various times, depending on when volunteers are available.  Sometimes on weekends and sometimes on week days after work.

Help us free the chained dogs of Forsyth County by becoming a volunteer because, Forsyth County Dogs Deserve Better than life on a chain.  Interested volunteers can contact Shari at sdstray40@yahoo.com or 336-207-8796 

Interested volunteers may also contact The Coalition to Unchain Dogs at the Triad Chapter Hotline at (336)790-7142 or via email unchaindogstriad@gmail.com . Let’s get started making a difference today!
