Where our paths lead us next, only the universe knows, but I still have my sparkly, silver magic wand in the back pocket of my old, faded blue jeans...and a poop bag.

I am very proud of the ideas here, and really hope that all the people that read this book rush out to their local shelter, sign up as a volunteer, and make a difference.
