Want to volunteer with animals?

If you're interested in doing some volunteer work here is an opportunity involving dogs. At Raanana's Municipal Kennels dogs are kept for various reasons (some because they have lost their owners) and these dogs need to be taken out for walks regularly. Volunteers are needed who will take the dogs from the kennels (which are next to Kfar Nachman, on the road which leads to the cemetery adjacent to Kiriat Sharet) for a walk.

If you are interested in walking dogs from the kennels this is done every morning except Tuesdays, between 09:30 and 11:30 and on a Friday between 08:30 and 10:00. You can volunteer for as many or as few hours as you can. The dogs really need some loving attention.

Another opportunity is to volunteer at the Raanana Park on a Saturday to help with the "adopt a pet" day which happens there regularly. These dogs really need homes and lots of love.

How to dispose of a dead dog/cat's body in Raanana

Believe it or not the municipality does not have a service which takes away dead animal's bodies and disposes of them. But if you bring your dog to the Municipal veterinary services they will put the dog down and take care of the body for 234.5 shekels. Alternatively you can go to a vet who will put the dog down for 450 shekels and take the body off of your hands for approximately 350 shekels or you can go out into the fields which surround Raanana and bury the dog or cat yourself. If your pet needs to be put down you can contact the Moked at 107 . Take into account that if you have the Municipality put your dog to sleep you cannot be with the animal when it is given the fatal injection. The Municipal veterinarian services are located next to Kfar Nuhman, on Kfar Nachman Road.
