Bernie, founder of A Place To Bark, has been saving dogs in Tennessee for six years. In that time over 2500 dogs have been saved from euthanasia. The south has the highest euthanasia rate in the nation with the least amount of resources to save these animals from a needless death. They may be a small rescue, but Bernie says, “I have the support of our law enforcement officials, the politicians and the largest animal welfare organizations who embrace and believe in my program. I am a partnering shelter to both HSUS and the ASPCA. Again, it all comes down to everyone working together towards a common goal, saving animals!” Follow A Place to Bark on twitter with 27,286 fans or find Bernie Berlin on Facebook blogging about the animals she saves! la P d 3r ce The American Dog Magazine | Spring 2011 99
