Thank you SO MUCH for helping to rescue the pitbull in Swope Park today. Please keep me up-to-date on how he's doing. God bless you for your concern for these helpless animals. I will e-mail you my phone number.

Though I don't know if I ever met Tara Nagel (if she worked at Arrowhead/ Country Kennels I'm sure I would have) I feel a connection with her. I do not have the resources to help all the animals I would like, but I help the few I can afford to. I have two dogs which are both Chow mix. One adopted from the Kansas City shelter the day before he was to be PTS and the other was going to be an "owner surrender". I was told by the lady at the KC shelter that it was unusual for anyone to adopt the Chow mixes because of their reputation. These two are the gentlest. They will bark at strangers, until I introduce them. This is exactly what I hoped for. Everyone in my neighborhood like them. Neither had really been worked with, but I am working with them and training them, not to become agressive, but just to obey simple friendly things like sit, lay, jump, stay, and to walk (sit or stand) beside me where ever we are or what we are doing. I do follow the suggestion to keep them on a leash when away from the house, just in case they should forget their manners. I don't want them to harm anyone elses companion, or come to harm themselves. They both do live outdoors (they are 50 and 100 pounds) but stay in the attached garage during severe cold weather, and they are allowed in the house now and then, with never an "accident". They both love to go for rides and we usually stop at McDonalds or Wendys for a cheeseburger and drink of water at those times. They really like the pickup truck with the cover on it, because they have much more room than the car seat and the cover has tinted windows that open for fresh air when desirable. I also have taken in a few cats and kittens that were abandoned and find good homes for them. I only have Social Security for an income so can't do as much as I wish, but just all that I can afford. The return I get in love from these few is what helps keep me going on those days when it seem everything else is going against me. I know without doubt I will one day meet them all again as we cross the "Rainbow Bridge" together. Until such time I think Tara will be there watching over those that may arrive there before me, along with all those loving friends that pass without knowing a loving home here on this earth. God puts people like Tara here so we can be assured of His caring for every living thing. So we will know that their spirits are just as valuable to Him as ours. Yes, it makes us sad when He calls them back, but we must accept that He has only shared them for a short time to comfort us, with the comfort He knows they will show to those who need it most. We are not always allowed to know that someone is really a Saint, until they have been called upon to return Home to take up their assigned duties there. I think one day all will find that Tara is one of those. Frank Rowlette, Kansas City, Missouri, October 10, 2010

Thanks to all of you for your wonderful friendship to my sister Jane. Helping animals was something she was born to do and I am glad she had such a wonderful experience with all of you.
