Clipping from the article: Walk a shelter dog Not everyone has a four-legged friend waiting at home at the end of a hard day. Even when pet ownership isn’t in the cards, it’s possible to get a furry friend fix at many area shelters. At the Humane Society, depending on the animals and the day, it’s possible to stop in and take a dog in need of a good home out for a walk. Some are located near trails, like the St. Paul Humane Society, with paths that wind through parts of Como Park. Minneapolis Animal Control relies on volunteers to help care for their animals. Just check with your local shelter on their policies ahead of time.
