Visit at the Arecibo Shelter + Fundraiser
A few years back I volunteered for The Sato Project, a NY rescue that is dedicated to helping the dogs of Puerto Rico. Back then, Arecibo was a municipal shelter, which name would send chills down the spine of any rescuer on the island. It was considered ground zero, a place of death and even alleged abuse.
Award: Hero of the Year for #PitBullFlowerPower
This weekend I received a Hero of the Year award for my Flower Power series, at the fabulous event Rescue the Runway! The event features adoptable dogs walking the runway escorted (or carried in some instances) by people who do great work for their community (firemen, policemen and so on!).
