Imagine you become incapacitated in some way or even worse you pass away. Think about the instructions you leave a pet sitter when you go on vacation. (SAME!) What if there was no plan for your dog? What if your cat had to go to a friend and they did not know the cat was an escape artist. So much to think about if your pets were left to someone who had little to no info about them. Christine Ciana Calabrese has made it REALLY easy for you with her book "What About The Dog," which is as much a journal as it is a book. It pokes at you to THINK about what the needs are of your pets in case something ever happens to you. Something we ALL should think about and journal about as tough as it may be. A great guest!

Horses have a magical healing power and once you get to know one, it is hard to walk away. For Valorie at North Winds Rescue and Healing, it all started with a horse named Sarge in a kill pen and on a list that no horse wants to be on. She saved him and he inspired her to do even more. She created North Winds Rescue & Healing that not only saves horses, but also saves humans through the healing power of horses. Quite remarkable. For more: https://www.northwindsequine.org/
