Needed –
Dog Walkers
BARKS has several dogs who desperately need daily walking.
These wonderful dogs gain a lot by having time out of the shelter. They burn off energy, gain leash walking experience and enjoy socializing with people. You will also gain a lot by helping to make these dog’s lives better.
Dog walkers must be at least 18 years old and go through a dog walking orientation.
If you are interested in helping, please contact Judy Lofgren at volunteers@barksinc.com.

Who Are We?

BARKS (Byram Animal Rescue Kindness Squad) is a non-profit, all volunteer, animal rescue organization founded in 1973 to provide veterinary care, housing and permanent placement of stray and abandoned cats and dogs.

BARKS works in association with the Byram Pound located on Mansfield Drive in Byram Township, N.J. In addition to the pets that can be seen at the Byram Pound, we also have many cats in foster homes and several dogs in local kennels. These pets can be seen by appointment and at our regularly scheduled adoption days.
