CHANGE A LIFE 800 

Welcome! We’re so glad you’re here!
Volunteering for Fences For Fido is a life-changing labor of love. A morning spent unchaining a dog is a gift for the dog-lover’s heart.

If you’ve ever worried about a lonely chained dog, we know you’ve wished that someone could do something to help.
With Fences For Fido, YOU can be that someone.
We’ll show you how.

In just one morning, you can join like-minded people in changing life for a dog, for a family, and sometimes for an entire neighborhood. And you’ll be finished by noon. There’s no better way to kick off your weekend.

Here’s how to get started:

  1. Watch our 4-minute how-to video to see how easy it is to build a fence. You don’t need any special skills or equipment, and our team leaders will guide you along the way.
  2. Check out our FAQ page to learn more about what we do and why.
  3. Click over to our volunteer sign-up page to see upcoming volunteer opportunities. You’ll see each dog’s story, their city, and the date of their build. After you sign up, you’ll receive a confirmation email with the exact location, any special instructions, and a contact person for your build.

It’s really that simple!
Reach out to our executive director, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. , with any questions. We’re glad you’re here and we want to help!

Our crew leaders draw up simple fence plans, pick up and deliver supplies to build site, and lead a dedicated group of volunteers in building our fences to get dogs off chains and into safely fenced yards.

You can volunteer as much or as little as you like, and we provide all training, equipment, and materials.

Fences For Fido builds two types of 6’ fences:

  • Full in-ground fences using welded wire field fencing and 4x4 corner posts.
  • Prefabricated chain-link fence panels for smaller and more level sites.

All fences are fitted with ground wire around the entire perimeter to prevent digging and keep our fidos safe.

The primary responsibility of a crew leader is to ensure the safe construction of a secure fence for our dogs by organizing and supervising volunteers who are passionate about helping get dogs off chains.

If you’re a great leader, enjoy working with people, and LOVE dogs, get prepared to make a tangible difference in the lives of chained dogs, because you’re a perfect fit! Here are a few happy faces of real-life crew leaders. Please join them in this great role!
