We’re In People Magazine!

February 23, 2007

The issue of People magazine that goes on sale tomorrow, Friday the 23rd, has a special section of stories called "Animal Rescue Heroes." We’re one of five different individuals or couples (well, we’re the only couple) profiled in this feature. The section begins on page 85, and the article on us is the last one in the series, on page 88. It’s a short piece and is titled "Creating A Sanctuary For Disabled Pets." A reporter flew up from People’s L.A. bureau last Monday, February 12th, to spend a
day with us, and their photographer came out the following day.

We haven’t seen the magazine yet; the reporter who did the story was kind enough to fax us the article from the advance copy he received today. This is what the magazine cover looks like; the edition is dated March 5, for some reason, but it comes out tomorrow.

You two are true heroes, to all the animals, and I’m surely speaking ananimously for your “blog fans”, too. VERY cool, and appropriate. This is a truly great day hearing Brynn’s good progress as well!
ps: I’m really glad you mentioned it because I would otherwise tried hard to avoid more “Britney”!

That’s great news! I don’t usually read this but LOTS of people do, & it’s in every doctor’s office & public place that I can think of! The exposure will be fantastic. I will check out the article. Congrats on getting some of the recognization that you so richly deserve! It’s only the tip of the iceburg.
Big hugs,
ginger & Tobias

I went out at lunchtime to look for People magazine. Finding it, I bought two copies, one for Kay and me and another for a friend. When I handed them to the perky, young clerk at CVS, she scanned them both, looked at the covers and said, “I guess you’re a big fan of Britney!”
Couldn’t they have put your story in an issue with ANYONE else on the cover? (Except maybe Anna Nicole).

I had a chance to read your story in this weeks People Magazine and immediately wrote down your web site address. I think what you are doing is inspirational. When I hear the expression “Angels on Earth” I really believe they were describing people just like you two. I’m glad I read your story and I hope that it teaches others to have compassion for the beautiful creatures that share this Earth.

This is my first visit to your website after seeing the article in People. I was so touched by your story and the amazing work that you do – God Bless you all! I hope the article helps spread your message and helps motivate others to start their own sanctuaries or donate to yours. I will certainly be popping in from time to time to keep up on these little angels!

Our family is stationed with the US Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia–a country where dogs are not welcomed and are considered dirty. I came across an article about your ranch via msnbc.com. I just want to say that you really are doing God’s Work looking after those creatures that would be otherwise thrown away. I’m sure it must be hard and at times very stressful, but you are doing what you are meant to do. We will be keeping tabs on your sanctuary 🙂

(BTW, my heart goes out to you on the passing of Pappy. I am dreading the day when my 13 y/o Pit Bull/Rottie dog passes away–she is the BEST dog I have EVER had. She is living the quiet, relaxed, comfy, slow paced life w/my brother in the states.)
