From the children’s rides, it was practically a football field to get
there. Then to find out, for ‘yourself, that there should be an ‘*out of

To the people of Terrace: new community

Frank Bowshier and his staff at the animal shelter are the kindest
and most sensitive people we have ever experienced.

Recently our eight year old son had to make a decision to give up
our family dog for adoption, that was ona Friday.

By late Sunday night we were still overwhelmed with grief, We
calied Frank (at home in his Manne] Dalmation printed pajamas) and
through tearful begging he met us at the animal shelter to ‘‘spring”’
Tiz. Until I had my own dog I could not understand the sadness of a
lost pet. Now. know,..So now we have a dog licence, have enralled
her in dog obedience school, and purchased 17 new dog leashes.
The fence contractor is rubbing his hands together. We are glad to
have her back,

Frank Bowsher is an unsung hero in our community. Let’s hope
his employer realizes and appreciates what an asset he is to Terrace
and how grateful this family is to his services. We must be thankful
to have such a caring team at the Terrace animal shelter,
