Summary: After selling her successful Pet-sitting business, Lindsey Grant wrote a book about the strange and curious relationships we have with our pets. Some of her client’s requests make for a noteworthy book. She’ll also be talking about how Switzerland, her new home, treats animals. Also, you’ll love this week’s Hero Person. She’s 84-year-old Dolly Jefferson. And she had no qualms about intercepting angry coyotes to save a neighbor’s dog. Now she’s making news nationwide. Also, Movie Producer Eric Ristau released his latest masterpiece about the many dogs that travel alongside their owner in a motorcycle sidecar. Sit Stay Ride: The Story of America’s Sidecar Dogs is the full-length movie that launched with a Kickstarter campaign, and now proceeds benefit animal welfare. Also, authorities in Louisiana have backed off on its demand that Zeus be gotten rid of or be destroyed. In October, Moreauville passed a law banning Pit Bulls or Rottweilers. When they targeted Zeus, the whole thing blew up on national television and on the Internet. Zeus helps the Owen’s daughter O’Hara who uses a wheelchair and has spasms, which Zeus monitors and gets her help when she needs it.
