Thank you, Temple

My respect and admiration for Temple Grandin had a bit more shine this week when I learned she was named to Colorado Womens Hall of Fame "for her trailblazing work in livestock welfare and autism advocacy...":

Temple's works and perspective are a great asset as I work with an autism service dog-in-training and the family he is partnered with in Tacoma. Luka is a product of the efforts and dedication of the North Star Foundation in Connecticut that breeds, raises and trains emotionally sensitive dogs to become service companions for children with autism.

Thank you, Temple, for sharing your story and insights to help others build bridges of communication.
