I acknowledge that my services are provided strictly on a volunteer basis, without any pay or compensation of any kind, and without liability of any nature on behalf of the Rescue. All services to be performed by me are at my own risk.

Furthermore, I give permission for Life Is Better Rescue to broadcast live, make a video and/or audio tape, take photographs, generate computer images, or other images of me in various uses during volunteer activities for the Rescue.
On behalf of myself, my heirs, personal representatives and executors, I hereby release, discharge, indemnify and hold harmless the Rescue, its officers, directors, agents, adoption partners, employees and other volunteers from any and all claims, causes of action, or demands, of any nature or cause, including costs and attorneys fees incurred by the Rescue in connection with the same, based on the damages or injuries which may be incurred or sustained by me or my property or any companion animal I may be in contact with which are in any way connected with my services or as a result of my services for the Rescue, including but not limited to, animal bites, accidents, disease or injuries.
