I love my job because it is so much fun. I always have something to say. I like to give advice to people and enjoy finding relationship & self-improvement stories to share with folks. I prefer to look at the bright side. I also believe that community service is a great gift that should be given by everyone and especially anyone willing to give of their time. I'm a huge dog lover and German Shepherds are my favorite. I visit our local animal shelter often and take photos for blogs to help find homes for the homeless pets. If you have lost a pet I can put a photo and description on our website with your contact information. Just send me an email! Please remember to spay and neuter your pets and, super important, get them microchipped.

Provide a Pet a Pad — Odie is Our Pet of the Week
Odie is a gorgeous Catahoula dog. He has an even temperament. He is known as the "lazy dog" at the shelter but trust me, this boy has enough energy to do whatever you have in mind for the day. He is just pretty laid back the rest of the time.

Provide a Pet a Pad — Puppy at the Animal Shelter Needs Your Help
Today's featured pet is an adorable, sweet puppy. He came into the shelter a week or so ago and was spunky but now he is not. It could be for many different reasons, some being very simple to fix and others may require more expense and recovery time. The shelter does not have the funds to take dogs to the vet so he will need to be rescued to be saved.
