POPULARITY
Many years ago I was in a relationship with someone who desperately wanted a Samoyed. Having already been fully engaged in animal rescue at that time I had a really difficult time with the knowledge that in his mind only a purebred Samoyed would do, still, he had an important occasion coming up and all he wanted for a present was a Samoyed puppy. I did tons of research, interviewed dozens of breeders and talked with veterinarians before I settled on a particular puppy. Truly she turned out to be one of the greatest dogs I've ever lost my heart to. About two months after we opened our hearts and home to Ivory I received a call from my very upset boyfriend who was at the mall and happened to wander into a pet store only to come across a Samoyed puppy obviously in distress. I rushed down to see for myself and found a male puppy of about the same age as our rambunctious 4-month-old puppy at home but who could barely stand and could not walk unassisted because he'd spent his entire life in a cage. My heart broke into tiny pieces at that moment. After calls to my vet, the ASPCA, local news reporters and an attorney we walked out with that puppy. It was not long until that particular "mall pet store" was shut down for cruelty. Frosty had issues. OK, that's a vast understatement. I spent many hundreds of dollars just making him live, then hundreds more rehabilitating him. While his life was cut short due to genetic defects he still was able to grow into a happy and relatively-healthy dog. We were devastated when he died but knew we'd given him a far better life than what he could have had if we'd not taken him from the deplorable conditions we found him in. Truly this was a tale of two dogs. Don't support puppy mills by purchasing puppies from pet stores.

Were you raised to believe that having pride in yourself was somehow wrong? Perhaps you were taught that "prideful" people were conceited and that it was wrong to tell anyone about your accomplishments because that was "boasting" and boasting was most definitely wrong. How about respect? You were probably taught to respect your elders, but what about yourself? Today we're talking about all of this plus how it all ends up in a culture where "customer service" seems to be a thing of the past. As always thanks for listening!
Our guest today is Barbara Trask Lovett, if that name sounds familiar to you then you're probably friends with us on facebook! Barbara has dedicated herself and her life really, to a particular elephant named Nosey. If you've seen PATHE Magazine you know Kellie LOVES elephants dearly and we actually featured Arte for Elephants and it's founder, Thyra Rutter, on a previous issue. Look for Barbara on an upcoming issue. So who is Nosey the Elephant? Well, in short she's a wild-born elephant who was captured and sent to a solitary life in captivity. She's been alone, mistreated and has developed arthritis and other health issues. Barbara is trying to raise enough money and enough knowledge about Nosey's situation to send her to an elephant sanctuary. You can contact Barbara on facebook https://www.facebook.com/barbara.t.lovett or through savenoseynow.org thank you so much for listening!

Writing on Air Radio Show Join Carol with her Guest Kellie Fitzgerald as they discuss her book "When on The Road to Enlightenment, Don't Forget to Take Out The Trash" and her other adventures (ventures) in writing. Kellie Fitzgerald has arrived at this particular point in her life by taking the scenic route, often filled with pitfalls and new beginnings. She tells people in her workshops and interviews "I did not have an idyllic childhood, this lead to my not having an idyllic first marriage which lead directly to my experiencing a number of illnesses and other negative events." Once Kellie escaped that very abusive first marriage she began living a spiritual path, only to find herself fighting for her life as surgeries followed illnesses and bouts of depression threatened to push her over the edge completely. Once free of abuse and in better health Kellie began starting businesses of her own. While some were successful, many were not and her continued battle with both physical and mental illnesses made periods of her life very difficult. Kellie has started over from scratch again and again throughout her life emerging each time stronger and more determined that before. Currently she owns a real estate brokerage, the Positive Transformation Network which is an internet radio station, and her true passion-project IbbiLane Press, a rapidly-growing hybrid publishing company created with the author in mind. She also heads Pathe Magazine. All that while continuing to work with aspiring entrepreneurs to help them make their entrepreneurial dreams come true!
