Foothills Animal Rescue

I was honored when asked to speak about the human-animal bond to the volunteers and staff of Foothills Animal Rescue.  The event is their volunteer appreciation day on November 13th.  This is a wonderful rescue organization in my neighborhood in Scottsdale.  They have a great heart for animals.  Here is more information about Foothills Animal Rescue:  http://foothillsanimal.org//
