I first became aware of Best Friends through the television show "Dog Town". I saw the love and dedication the staff has for the animals that come to Best Friends , as well as other animals that have a need . But what really showed me what they were made of was when they took in the Vicks dogs. They wasted no energy on Vicks or his actions, what mattered was the dogs. That's when I realized that here was a group of people with singleness of purpose. I admire them, respect them and I'm grateful for the job they do.
