Dear Reader,

Although this is our story, there

are millions of Abigails.

Abby and I wanted to share the

value of being spayed with children

from Abby's point of view. Abby

also feels all pets should be microchipped.

We wish everyone could know

the joy of adopting a pet. It may

take a little work, but it is well worth

the reward of adding a treasured

member to your family.

Remember . . . it all starts with

you and one adoption.

Sandy & Abby
