Community -- a good thing

When's the last time you got together with a bunch of other rescue people? Not at a meeting and greet or other dog event, but just the two-legged components? To talk over area rescue issues, share resources, brainstorm solutions?

Knoxville area rescue groups started doing this a few months ago and it's been a great thing. We have the occasional guest speaker but even when those don't show up, we find plenty to talk about. Big snaps to Pattye Elliott of East TN Bloodhound Rescue for getting all this started!

If you don't have area rescue meetings, consider starting one. I know, I know -- Rescue Groups are legendary for fragmenting. But if everyone can just remember why we're all into this, it can work. I has to work. Unless you really like wasting time and money -- and dog lives -- over human ego issues. Not good. Very not good.

Be as good as your dog. Play nice with others. Don't be a special needs case and don't make me get the muzzle out.
