"Friends of Hawkesbury Companion Animal Shelter" are volunteers who visit the shelter weekly to photograph & spend time with Dogs & Cats needing homes.

"Friends of Hawkesbury Companion Animal Shelter" is a group of volunteers who seek the "extras" for the dogs and cats in care at Hawkesbury Pound. We also visit the pound each week and take photographs and temperament tests of the animals to post online and promote the animals. We upload our images and opinions of these animals to Facebook, Twitter and PetRescue. We are NOT employed by Hawkesbury Council or claim to be representing the Hawkesbury Shelter. For any inquires related to these animals or volunteering for Hawkesbury Pound, please contact them directly on (02) 4560 4644.
