about
My name is Devin Lindsey or Vinny as my sister calls me! I am 17 years old and go to Bethel Park High school. I loooove swimming along with dancing, singing, and playing softball. I also run varsity track with is alright i supose too.My favorite colors are orange, pink, and blue. I love to be crazy and have a good time
I've had a job working for 15+ monthes so I can answer alot about that
and I know alot about relationships in general so I can be helpful with that sometimes
especially with parent child relationships
I am a very observant person and tend to know more and care about more than most my age
and I really believe in volunteering to help animals especially at shelters. Usually its not their fault that they have to live their and its usually horrible cercimstances that bring them there and I feel terrible that they can't speak for themselves and people are too caught up in spending like $500 on this cute little pure breed puppy from a breeder just into getting rich instead of giving one of these dogs another chance at life (there are usually a handful of dogs under a year old so the i want a puppy excuse doesn't work with me)
My baby is named Lainey Mae... we got her from a shelter about 2 hours away from us when she was 7 weeks old. she is now 2 years old and the center of our family. unfortunately someone was cruel enough to go down and drug up and shoot (but luckly not kill) most of the dogs plus rob the owner (just like someone did at the shelter where I volunteer) and its now shut down
advice
I'm 15/f and I'm pretty much an animal rights wanna be activist freak. lol
I saw the SHAC demos put together into one video on youtube. I believe they're stationed in Europe...maybe I'm wrong. Anyways, are they going to come to Washington DC or somewhere in Virginia again? And could I join even though I'm only 15? Although I highly doubt my mom would let me be part of a demo but whatever. I just wanted to know how old you have to be in order to be able to join demos
hey that other person pretty much answered your question and this is totally unrelated to your answer (sorta)
but I was wondering if you ever considered or do volunteer at dog shelters.. not only can they get you more involved in different demos and stuff but that is the best way to help animals... because no matter how strict things get with the law and animal rights its never going to be able to be 100% prevented and i would say 70% of the animals in alot of shelters where taken from homes where they are abused and sometimes spend the rest of their lives in shelters
I try to go as often as possible to my local shelter to do what I can.. one year me and a girl for girlscouts had a drive and collected food to take down and I try to go down and walk these poor dogs around on trails in the surrounding area and stuff because without volunteers most of these dogs just sit in their cages alone all day. I know at my shelter there are only 1 or 2 paid employees with over 40 dogs and close to 100 cats so its impossible for them to do it alone.. and most shelters like mine are soo poor there is nothing they can really do.
If you don't already volunteer consider it.. even if you can only go once or twice a year. It makes a huge difference in the lives of these poor animals that can't speak for themselves and did nothing wrong to spend their lives like that.
(Rating: 5) Thanks and I'm not old enough to volunteer where I live. I have to be 16 or be accompanied by an adult and my mom won't like to drive me and babysit me.
