This wonderful animal is communicating with burn patients because they can see in this dog's eyes that he has a comforting and sensitive caring soul. There is a dog like this waiting today for you.

Last year 4 million shelter dogs were euthanized. This dog speaking to strangers at Parkland....people who are being tested in ways most of us could never bear nor imagine...is typical of the dogs I have met (and yes rescued and adopted) who were otherwise destined to be 'put down' because we drove past instead of stopping. Because no one went to see them at our animal shelters, no one knew they lived or died. We cared but in real terms we did nothing.

Look at this dog who is bringing such humanity to those suffering and let him remind us how; when you save a dog's life, you may unknowingly help more than just that dog, in ways that are ongoing and profound.
