Hank is OC Animal Care’s February Volunteer Of The Month! He has been volunteering with Small Dog Play Group for over two years. What makes Hank so special is that the littles think he has the best lap around. The shier the pup, the more likely you will find her sitting on Hanks lap waiting for ear scratches, belly rubs and cuddles. Hank always has a sly smile for his fellow volunteers, and wouldn’t miss play group for the world! It is so very easy to celebrate this kind, compassionate volunteer!
