OC Animal Care is happy to celebrate October’s Volunteer of the Month, Tracy Takatsuka! Tracy is a newer volunteer who has jumped in with both feet! She has mastered Support Services, Small Dog Playgroup, walking the big dogs, and is always willing to help out with events. Tracy joined us on our first-ever Husky Mush Pack Walk!   Tracy has become a go-to volunteer for staff and her fellow volunteers. Congratulations Tracy! It’s always nice to see your smiling face around the shelter.
