STUDENT BLOG: Best Friends Animal Sanctuary

Five students and two faculty members are spending the first week of their summer vacation in Kanab, Utah, volunteering at the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.

For over 30 years, Best Friends has been running the nation’s largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals and building effective programs that reduce the number of animals entering shelters.

Follow along with Dr. Julie O'Reilly, Dr. Robin Heaton, Allison Burd, Theresa Barger, Mason Hainey, Emma Morris and Lauren Hoffman as they document their travels and work.
