After many years of volunteering in various capacities at the Lodi Animal Shelter, a dedicated group calling themselves "Shelter Volunteers" applied for non-profit 501(c)(3) status as People Assisting the Lodi Animal Shelter (PALS). Today, this small but devoted organization is working to make small miracles happen at the Lodi Animal Shelter. PALS strives to keep animals healthy and sick animals receive the care and treatment they deserve.
