Saving animals

Has an animal ever saved you?

Years ago, I found myself sitting on the floor of a bookstore, shamelessly reading self-help books, trying to save my marriage. I was in a dark place. And then I met Wesley.

A week before my then-husband left, my best friend and I saw a beagle at a McDonald's, lapping up mud puddles. The dog's ribs were showing, worms were leaking out his bum, and his tail wagged. And Wesley was mine.

Onlookers thought I saved Wesley, but truly he saved me. Through him, I met the love of my life and began not just a great new chapter, but brand new book. I will be forever grateful for the healing power of companion animals. 

Please help me help animals help people. Thank you!
