In this episode of From Tip to Tail, Bridget and Sydney connect with Sheryl Green from Hearts Alive Village, a nonprofit organization in Las Vegas, Nevada. Hearts Alive Village was formed as a response to the intense need to help save dogs and cats from losing their lives in an overcrowded shelter system. With facilities such as adoption centers, a pet food bank, and a soon to be veterinary clinic, Hearts Alive Village is showing how heart and grit can have a major impact on the animal welfare of a community.

Topics of conversation include: how Hearts Alive Village is managing during COVID in a tourist destination like Las Vegas, the impact working at the shelter has had on Hearts Alive Village’s volunteers, things to consider if you are interested in starting a rescue and how to grow your program, the importance of networking and learning from other organization, how their veterans program removes roadblocks preventing veterans from adopting loving pets, and other topics.
