The Dogs That Rescued Me
“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.”
-Anatole France
Welcome to PATH!
Hi! I am Claire. I live in a cabin in the mountains of North Georgia with my husband Ben and our five dogs. I have spent most of my career working in the behavioral health care field, primarily doing psych evals (which I actually loved). I am now a licensed Realtor in Georgia and have four nutrition certifications from AFPA.
However, my passions include hypnotherapy, helping others organize, writing, and--big surprise--dogs! I was a pet rescue volunteer for many years. I grew up on a small country farm and got my love for animals from my mother. I love sharing and hearing stories about all pets. As you read my stories, I hope you will be inspired to share yours with me to publish here so others can enjoy them, too! ❤️🐾🐾

Oscar is a Yorkie--a senior who is blind, toothless, and incontinent, but who is also very intelligent, loving, and cute as can be

I hope that you will share your pet stories and photos with me for everyone else to read. Regardless of what type of pet you have, from a hermit crab to a horse, their stories are welcome here. Paws are not a requirement; neither do they have to be rescued. Sometimes pets rescue us, regardless of how we acquired them. Come join me on this journey.
