T HE E WAG From the Editor

Thank You! The positive response to the premier of THE WAG magazine has been overwhelming

As a result, we’re kicking off this edition with heartfelt thanks to our many readers who continue to express their thoughts and appreciation for the publication (p 25) And, a special thank you to our advertisers for their ongoing support.

This issue showcases a couple of divine stories that seem to substantiate Charles Bukowski’s quote from “The People Look Like Flowers at Last” that reads, Dogs and angels are not very far apart.

Without a doubt, it was a host of angels, along with some deliberate happenstance, that banded together saving the life of Angel Damone (p. 18).

Aleah

Gabriel’s Angels (p. 14) tells us about a legion of dogs that, through unconditional love, breaks cycles of violence and teaches life lessons to at-risk children.

It was a casual conversation with a new friend that made me realize the importance of considering senior dogs when adopting (p 21) I guess you could call it my “aha” moment as I suddenly realized the negative benefits of seniority in the arena of canine rescue–make it something to think about if you’re thinking of adding to your pack

We‘ve added a new section to THE WAG called Touching Tails offering reader-written stories about their pets. Writer Joyce Becker Lee shares her entertaining and poignant account (p 30)

From blood donation to best bedding for your buddy, this issue is chock full with information to peruse, share with your friends, and even read aloud to your four-legged companion Enjoy!

Remember to send us your suggestions, ideas, photos, and your story, if you have one, for Touching Tails. We’d love to hear from you! penny@thewagmagazine.com.

Wishing you and all our furry friends a sensational Spring
