['I volunteer at the animial shelter on weekends.', 'Hey good for you!  Plenty of good boys and girls there?', 'So many, I wish I could bring every one of them home with me! I hate seeing them there not knowing how it feels to be loved so I make sure I show them.']
Yeah but at least they get to see you often so you can give them some love and pets!
I volunteered at the animal shelter this weekend. It breaks my heart to see all those unloved animals.
