On Feburary, 24th our good friend and coworker, Mike, had to have surgery to repair a hernia. Mike is a wonderful person and our own personal dog whisperer. He's been dubbed the doggie courtesan of our area because his kissed and loved on every dog that's walked through our doors in the past three and a half years. Whether they are shy from being in a shelter or a little unsure of being in public, Mike will always get on the floor and spend as much time as the dog needs to make them feel comfortable. He's truly a master at making friends and always the first to jump when someone needs assistance. He's always the one to make you laugh or bring you food if you're feeling down or having a bad day.

Mike has become an integral part of our team and our community over the past few years and we'd love to show him our appreciation by helping when he truly needs it.

For someone who does so much for everyone else and never asks for help, he deserves something nice to help alleviate some stress and worries.
