Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | HAHA I'm ON THE NEWS right now ! I'm SO PROUD OF OUR LOCAL NBC NEWS STATION !!! I'm really stressed this morning with this monster hurricane Yikes... and up too early - so I decided to write the local stations about our pets. I emailed our Local NBC Station with a plea for them to KEEP REMINDING PEOPLE to take their inside AND outside pets with them during Hurricane Yikes - not to leave them in doghouses or tied to trees - and they read my email WORD For WORD on the news just now - and of course announced my name wrong (last name - the easy one lol) They did a 2 minute segment about my email !!! I feel so good - the end of the segment they said ..."She (Villette) wanted us to know she isn't a fanatic - just a pet lover'" LOL !!!!!!!!!!! Ah - Channel 2 KPRC - I actually AM a fanatic lolol GOOD FOR CHANNEL 12 KPRC NEWS ~! I think they're going to keep repeating this (I asked them to) |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Quote:
on a good note - I'm so proud of our new stations here in Houston - this is the 2nd great experience I've had with them - 1st with FOX News & the Brushy Creek Kennels story that took place right on this site. and now NBC - it only took them 10 minutes to get my email on the news and I can imagine they swamped with emails during this hurricane so it really surprised me. We have alot of petlovers in our newscasters I think | |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | LOL - more like TWO but I was so glad they did it. I asked them to keep doing little reminders in the continuing coverage and hope they do. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Thanks guys...I just can't think about anyone tying up pets while sheltering in place.... or leaving them if they evacuate - especially their outside pets..... This is scary enough for us humans to go thru and our little furry friends are at OUR mercy. and don't be proud of me - be proud of the news stations that actually READ their emails and put it out there - - they really do care. |
