Hello friends,

A few weeks before school started, my mother would take me shopping for clothes and shoes. One year, it was a matching plaid jumper and pants. In fifth grade, the pinnacle of my tomboy-hood, I scored a pair of corduroy pants and a half-zip mock turtleneck. The zipper had a big ring pull and I thought I was so groovy. In high school, it was all about the jeans and the hair.

My kids loved shopping for school supplies, lists in hand. We put the label maker through the wringer and faced the new school year with a sheen of organization and enthusiasm.

To all the families adjusting to new schedules and earlier bedtimes, we wish you luck and send good vibes for plenty of patience.

We hope you enjoy this issue, dedicated to students, families, teachers, and administrators who all have one goal in mind: to engage and challenge children and help our community’s next generation thrive.

Have a great August.

All my best,

Where Artistry Meets Innovation

Hero Volunteers Power Hero Dog Rescue

Atlanta's abandoned dogs need you

ARTICLE BY STACY CONDE | PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

Over three million dogs enter U.S. animal shelters every year. That doesn’t account for thousands more that are rescued by independent organizations. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 34,000 dogs are taken into Metro Atlanta animal shelters. 5,000 of those are in Roswell.

The stories of mistreated, abandoned dogs are endless. Just the first few notes of Sarah McLachlan’s “Angel,” used in the ASPCA’s TV ads, are enough to start the waterworks. We can’t save all the dogs, but there are many local organizations who are saving thousands every year and they need your support.

Hero Dog Rescue is one such group. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, they depend on public donations and the passion and hard work of their volunteers. They go above and beyond to help dogs that other rescues can’t or won’t work with, by saving and fostering seniors, sick and injured dogs that require even more care and attention.

There is no brick and mortar headquarters for Hero. Dogs pulled from high kill shelters or saved from the street are placed directly into a volunteer foster home.

Aneta Ardeljan has been a Hero Dog volunteer for the past three years. In that time she and her husband have fostered and adopted out more than 120 dogs from their home in Buford, GA. She recently received a Congressional Commendation from Congressman Andrew Clyde for her work with Hero. In addition to being an outstanding foster, Aneta helps with vet appointments, mentors new fosters, and hosts events at her home to provide a gathering place for the Hero team to connect. “We rely on our foster volunteers to provide these abandoned and neglected dogs with love, care, a warm home, a clean bed, proper nutrition, toys, exposure to everyday elements and walks,” she says. “Some of these dogs have never slept inside or on a soft, clean bed, ever.”

We asked Aneta if she had a favorite, uplifting rescue story. She said that there are too many to choose just one, but, “Nothing is more gratifying than getting a dog from the shelter that is shaking uncontrollably, scared, ungroomed, with tail tucked between its legs, completely shut down… and within a few days of showing them love, care and comfort, a warm bath, and a clean soft bed to lay their head at night, that dog is now wagging their tail and smiling at you, giving you kisses and looking into your eyes as if saying, ‘Thank you for saving me.’” Cue Sarah McLachlan “Angel”...

There are many ways to support Hero Dog Rescue. Adopt a dog. Consider fostering or volunteering. If you aren’t able to do those things, a financial donation goes a long way to help. No amount is too little. You can also like and follow Hero on Facebook @HeroDogRescue.    HeroRescue.org

PAMPERING YOUR SUMMER SKIN

In today’s fast-paced world, both my summer skin and my friends decided we needed a break from our hectic schedules to indulge in the local med spa we had all been hearing about. With relaxation, advanced skincare, and bonding during our girlfriends’ day out as our priorities (oh, and to be kid free!), we decided there was no better way to rejuvenate both our skin and our souls from the non-stop of the past few months than treating ourselves to a specialty facial treatment.

A WARM AND WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT:

As we stepped into the Alpha Lan Med Spa, I could literally feel the stress melting away as we were greeted by a serene ambiance that instantly made us feel like we were a world away. Music played in the background, as we sat with Lan and discussed our skin treatment plans: a zero down-time Zo Skin Health facial peel for me, PiXel8 RF microneedling for one of my friends, and the first Ultherapy treatment in a series for my other girlfriend. The knowledgeable and friendly technicians welcomed us and guided us through the process, ensuring we felt comfortable and well-informed about the treatments we were about to receive.

READY, SET, REFRESH:

Reassured, knowing that our facial treatments were tailored to address our specific concerns, we were ready and set to refresh! As we were led into private and tranquil rooms for our specific treatments, it was impressive to see the advanced equipment alongside the plush comfortable bed. Soft lighting and soothing music added to the overall “ahhhh,” as Lan and one of her top estheticians began the peel by thoroughly cleansing my skin and gently removing any impurities and makeup residue.

ABSOLUTE RADIANCE:

ARTICLE BY VALERIE SHEPHERD

The Zo Skin Health line is known globally, and I was thrilled to hear that Alpha Lan Med Spa carried such innovative products and offered their facials and peels. I now know with certainty why women rave about about the no downtime and turn-backthe-clock results. It was as if Lan and her esthetician skillfully performed magic on my face, instantaneously revealing radiant skin that I hadn’t seen in months... okay, who am I kidding - years! I couldn’t believe the immediate difference it made to both my skin and my mood.

The warm and welcoming environment at Alpha Lan Med Spa has been open for 4 years. From experienced medical aestheticians to licensed medical professionals, the highly trained and skilled team provides an elevated experience.

ALPHA LAN MED SPA - THE LOCAL RECHARGE EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT

THE PERFECT ENVIRONMENT:

When my friends came out of their rooms looking relaxed and refreshed, we took a little time to relax, unwind, read a few magazines and enjoy each other’s company in the med spa’s cozy environment. We loved hearing more about Lan’s mission as a local female business owner: to offer the most cutting edge and high end services available in the market, right here in Johns Creek. There’s a reason why the spa’s schedules are full and women keep coming back. It’s because of the elevated and personable care she and her team give to you as well as all of your skin and health care needs.

FEELING REJUVENATED ON THE INSIDE AND OUT:

Safe, effective, luxurious, priced right and refreshing were the words my friends and I used while booking our next appointments. Our girlfriends’ day out to the med spa for facials, peels and exclusive procedures was an absolute treat for the senses and a much-needed break as these moms head into the upcoming school year. No longer a secret, we’ll be back to this local skin care heaven for more treatments soon!

With access to the latest advancements, they’re passionate about helping clients look and feel their best while providing the most effective and innovative treatments available.

MEET LAN:

A female business owner, renowned  skin care expert with over 10 years of experience, and your local neighbor.

Lan opened Alpha Lan Med Spa to bring new, cutting edge technology to the Johns Creek and surrounding communities. She's known for her immaculate skin, infectious smile and ensuring clients receive advanced services that result in a visible difference.

every diet DOG’S

Nutritional needs for dogs vary based on which stage of life they are in. These life stages include growth, adulthood and senior care. Utilizing a diet that is complete and balanced for a specific life stage is important to help reduce the incidence of nutritional problems. At Pet Wants Johns Creek, the answer is in the food.

PUPPIES

When puppies are growing, they require more calories, protein, fat, and higher levels of vitamins and minerals than adult dogs. Puppies need nutrients for their daily activities in addition to nutrients to allow for tissue growth and development. Puppies need a diet formulated for growth until they are 12 months of age. Large and giant breed puppies require a formula designed for largebreed puppy growth since feeding a diet appropriate for largebreed growth helps prevent orthopedic issues, obesity, and other problems. Puppies are considered large breed if their adult weight will be more than 50 pounds.

Feeding Puppies:

A puppy’s stomach is too small to hold enough food in a single feeding to provide its daily requirement of needed nutrients. Young puppies should be fed at least three times a day until their food requirements, per pound of body weight, begin to level off. Depending on breed size,

feedings can be reduced to twice a day when puppies are 4 to 5 months old. Puppies that are fed a complete and balanced diet do not need supplemental vitamins, minerals, or protein. Supplementation may cause a nutritional imbalance and interfere with the normal development of growing puppies. Controlling caloric intake during growth and feeding to promote a lean and well-muscled body type supports a moderate and not excessive rate of growth and helps prevent overweight conditions and developmental skeletal disorders.

ADULTS

After a dog is fully grown, it is classified as an adult and enters the maintenance period of life. Different breed sizes reach adult size and maturity at different times. Provide complete and balanced nutrition that contain high-quality ingredients and are highly digestible.

NUTRITION FOR ADULT DOGS

Healthy adult dogs that are not pregnant, nursing, or hard-working have lower nutritional requirements for maintaining appropriate body conditions compared to puppies. A recipe for adult dogs should contain high-quality protein, highly digestible ingredients, antioxidants to support a strong immune system, and Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids to help keep the skin healthy and the coat shiny.

SENIORS

Senior dogs tend to be less active than their younger counterparts, but energy requirements can be higher or lower than young to middle-aged animals, depending on the age and the presence or absence of disease. In general, animals with chronic diseases require more calories to maintain their weight. Healthy senior animals may require increased dietary protein to help maintain lean muscle mass. However, the presence of disease can alter ideal nutrient requirements. The

average canine life span is 13 years. The age at which dogs are considered senior varies according to breed size. Most dogs at 7 years of age are still very fit and active and are showing few external signs that they are aging. The primary objectives for feeding senior dogs are to support optimal health and body condition, slow or prevent the development of chronic disease, manage signs of any disease already present and support optimal organ function.

PREGNANT FEMALES

Reproducing females (either pregnant or lactating) require a diet formulated for gestation/ lactation Look for food that benefits reproduction in addition to being a preferred formulation for growth of a puppy. Puppy food should be started mid-way through pregnancy.

FANS OF PET WANTS JOHNS CREEK

“Howie has sensitive skin and a sensitive tummy. We tried many different ‘over-the-counter’ food options that just didn’t seem to help.  Since he has been dining on salmon and brown rice his skin allergies and his tummy issues are a thing of the past!”

“I found Pet Wants via an extensive search...and I’ve never looked back. Kasha really likes it and I feel good about giving it to her. There’s no junk and fillers in it and the fact that it’s made in small batches matters. Her fur looks amazing and it’s obvious that she feels spectacular. We so appreciate the customer experience they provide as well. It’s just a wonderful company and suite of products.”

“My dog Emma has always had digestive issues, and, as a result, I’ve tried all kinds of dog food including making it myself. It wasn’t until she got started on the lamb/rice combo from Pet Wants that her digestion issues improved. I also highly recommend the pumpkin powder and the digestive enzymes in combination with the food!”

WHO'S A GOOD GIRL?

ARTICLE BY JOHNS CREEK CITY LIFESTYLE STAFF

This is Algernon (or Algae). She is a 3-year-old Siamese living with me in Johns Creek. She loves to smile for pictures and is even trained to sit at the table for her treats. Jess Legato, Autrey Mill Nature Preserve Mocha is a 3-year-old rescue mix of lab, pointer and hound. After every meal, Mocha will come up and paw you until you take a ball from the cabinet and play chase around the family room table. Karyn Slovin, senior advertising manager, Johns Creek City Lifestyle  Buster’s story is a long and winding tale. In January 2015, our family was regrouping after recently losing my father to pancreatic cancer after nearly 4 years of treatment. It was a very difficult time. My youngest son Brady (9 at the time) had been begging to get a dog for years, but my older son Ryan, who has special needs, was terrified of animals and especially dogs. On the MLK holiday, the boys and I drove into our driveway and discovered a large tub with a note on top. I got out of the car to investigate and a tiny creature flew past me, jumping out of the tub and running down the street. The note was an adoption request.

Buster

Jorja

We followed our future pet to the neighborhood park, carrying a purse strap that was left for a leash in the tub. Once we secured the dog, Ryan got down on all fours, looked straight into the dog’s eyes and said, “Keep him,” matter-offactly. Ryan was far too anxious to get close to a dog at the time and really disliked getting close to animals’ faces. He also had very limited verbal abilities. The interaction and his assessment were a small miracle. We changed his name from Buddy to Buster. Brady (and the whole family) finally got a loving pet

and Ryan got a vigilant companion who believes he is responsible for Ryan’s safety. Buddy has had the temperament of a service dog from the first day we had him and he restored joy to our home when we desperately needed it. It has been 8 1/2 years now. Buster’s cardiologist says he is likely 10-15 years old. He continues to be the very best boy and we firmly believe he was sent by my dad with a very specific assignment, to protect and love us. Superior

Parsley is almost a year old. She only has three legs and a partial tail as she was found stuck in a car engine over the winter and had to have one of her front legs amputated and part of her tail. We adopted her from a rescue called Pippi’s Place Pet Rescue. Parsley is very mischievous and despite only having three legs, she can get into and onto just about everything in the house!

The Athlete's Life

We asked a few Johns Creek student athletes about their goals, sage advice and family time.

BRADY CARNESALE

Senior, JCHS, Baseball

As a senior, I will be focused on making the most of my last year in high school and working out plans for college. I have thoroughly enjoyed high school, participating in both the baseball and theater programs, and am excited to have a strong finish next year. A personal goal as well as a goal for the varsity team will be to make it to the playoffs; and, just like my teammates, I’ll be working hard to make that a reality. Our go-to restaurant after games has been Taco Mac ever since I was in little league. As for advice, as one of my coaches says, you don’t rise to the occasion, you fall to the level of your preparation. Also, I think it’s incredibly important to communicate with your teammates and boost morale.

RIYA HAVANUR

Senior, Northview High School, Varsity Tennis

Coming back from two great seasons through my sophomore and junior year as state champions, I think that our goal as a team for this school year is another state win. Our team is so efficient in getting the results that we want through active communication and strategized collaboration. With these factors, I hope to see my performance as an individual team member improve, contributing to the betterment of the entire team.

My family and I love stopping by cafes for celebrations and for regular sit-down and talk times. We enjoy cold drinks - whether that be a refresher from Starbucks, or a cup of bubble tea.

My advice for a younger student playing tennis is to find a balance. I think that it’s really important to stick to something once you start it. Finding a way to balance your sport with other activities throughout your student life will make sure that you have time to excel as a student in your academics, but it will also give you the time to get out and hit some balls when you feel like you need a break.

GIRISH SENTHILKUMAR

Junior, Cross Country, Track, Swim Team

This coming year will mark my second full year of running after injuries. This season I hope to break 17 minutes in the 5k and hopefully help my team qualify for state. In track, being more of an individual sport, I hope to teach the underclassmen the proper mechanics of running so they can prosper as a runner. I also hope to break 2 minutes in the 800m and run a 4:30 mile. After every track race, we love to go to Waffle House as a team. It’s one of the only restaurants open at such late times. I tell younger athletes to know that you have to push your limits sometimes. Without going that extra mile, it’s going to be nearly impossible to achieve greatness. Moreover, losses do not define your abilities. Remember… “Winners are just losers that never gave up.”
