[NAME],
Hello from DallasDogLife!
It's been an exciting two weeks since the last DDL newsletter, hasn't it? Not only did we sit on pins and needles while the story of the LBJ Dog played out, we also heard about a stray dog at a local church who was eluding rescuers and raising the ire of the church staff. (Luckily, the pastor and rescuers have come to an agreement and rescue efforts will continue.) Finally, those who "like" the DallasDogLife.com Facebook page were able to watch as many concerned DDL readers came together to save the life of a retired police K9 officer. Great team effort by some of the most compassionate and helpful dog lovers I know. Thanks again for all your help and support!
On to this week's updates!

When looking for a pet care professional, you want someone with a myriad of skills: training experience, pet first aid knowledge, and a caring demeanor with animals. Finding just the right person for any particular pet care service can take time, so it's always nice to find one person who can fill many roles. Beth Bowers of Power to the Pawz Pet Services and Education is a pet sitting professional who is also trainer and educator, so you can rest assured that your beloved pets are in good hands.
