Today, Monday January 5, the National Public Radio show "All Things Considered" included a lovely segment, from reporter Susan Phillips, on a free kennel in Pennsylvania, created by a former marine, where service personnel can leave their animals when they are deployed.
You can listen to the short segment on line at

The show sometimes reads comments from viewers, so millions of people may hear your animal friendly views. And most importantly positive feedback for animal friendly stories encourages more of them.
I thank Patty Meehan for making sure we heard this one.
Yours and the animals',
Karen Dawn
