Hi PT friends,
Last night at a church function, a gentleman came in with his dog, a beautiful white standard poodle. Of course I had to go over and pet him. His owner and I got to talking, told him I'm a paralegal looking to retire in about a year and would love to do paralegal work for an animal welfare group. As it turns out, he's with a local animal shelter here in Trenton. I now will be doing volunteer paralegal work for the Ewing Animal Shelter!!! This will combine my two big loves - animals and doing research. My wish now is to be able to make a difference and improve the lives of pets in need through the legal system. Right now I'm thrilled to pieces and can't wait to get started.

That is just fantastic! A chance conversation leads to a new opportunity and a start on your future.

Was this his first time to yur church? And they let him and the dog in? I think that is equally fantastic.

Congrats! That's great for you and for the furry ones! We need more animal advocates in the justice system. The best of luck on this great new undertaking!
