What’s Really
Important?
This dinosaur has written about lots of things over the
years. I’ve given opinions on
breeding, grooming, and many other topics, but this short blog is much more
important.
Shirley Schaffer, a long time Collie fancier, CC of A member
and former District Director for Michigan has suffered a real tragedy. Upon arriving home from a local dog
show, Shirley found her home on fire.
In addition to the damage to the home, she lost four house dogs and
possibly her cat which can’t be found.
This lady recently drove thru the Michigan winter to help
rescue dogs from a Michigan breeder who had passed away and whose family could
not care for them. There was no
reward, but it was the right thing to do.
Now Shirley is not wealthy and her older home was not
covered by insurance. This lady
who gladly helped out dogs in need, needs our help. We dog people may spar and argue, but in a time of need, we
come together.
Please give all you can to help Shirley rebuild her damaged
home and her life. Things like
this can happen to any one of us.
At such a time we’d all hope for help from our like minded friends.
Think about it!!
