Tiny Dog Makes Huge Impact
Meet Juno the Facebook sensation, and her inspiring mom Deborah Young. The duo's online and real-world work supports Kane's Krusade, Pet Rock Festival, theCold Noses Foundation, Sweetpea Animal Shelter, Massachusetts Vest-A-Dog, Paws for a Cause, ending Breed-Specific Legislation (BSL) and many other causes.
Tell us about Juno and the work you do together.
As far as Juno knows, she's a little person, not a dog. During a visit to grandma in the hospital, I quickly realized that Juno had a way with patients, so the Chihuahua with a big heart began visiting senior centers and hospitals, spreading good will and smiles. She became a therapy dog with Paws for Friendship and is a Paws to Read dog, where she goes into libraries and children read to her to build self-confidence. Juno's calm demeanor and gentle disposition make her the perfect ambassador and trusted friend.
I work to promote spay/neuter programs and meet with children and try to teach them respect and kindness towards animals, and hopefully they will learn kindness and respect toward each other. Juno's Paw-it-Forward project collects supplies for a school where 98% of the students live at poverty level. In 2014, Juno raised $1,000.00 for the American Cancer Society Relay for Life. Last year we did a fundraiser and brought Christmas in August to five-year-old Grayson Hand of Sturbridge who has leukemia. This year we did another fundraiser and took his older sister to an American Girl store and let her be princess for a day because often she has to be so understanding of her little brother's needs.

Dog Treat Tragedy Results in Drive for Rescue
A few months ago a package arrived in the mail. A package that our dog Rumplepimple couldn't ignore. We opened it and discovered three packets of doggy deliciousness that our pooch found irresistible. They were natural treats made by a company called Apple Pie Pets. We'd met the company's founder and "Chief Jerky Maker" Karen Probst through a canine rescue organization. After hearing that tragedy had kicked the company into being, we wanted to learn more.

Like most determined Wire Fox Terriers, Rumplepimple destroys the finest of toys in mere minutes. Squeakers and scrunchy bits are no match for his intensity of focus. So his moms were thrilled to discover quality toys that do more than just last.
