    The Creators Of Petfinders.com

    I read this article this morning & thought it was very
    interesting. I guess they're right in saying to never underestimate
    the power of just one or two people in making a huge difference.

    I had no idea that's how Petfinder was started!!!!

    How could they possibly have known what a great impact they were going to have on people??

    Thanks for sharing this wonderful story Liz.

    Glad you enjoyed the article. This info was a revelation to me
    as well. I had no idea.

    There was a companion article inside the link about southern
    born puppies who are brought to the north east for adoption
    by anxious families. Made me feel good about pet lovers.
