I was thrilled. I'd gotten to a point in my life where I wanted to make a difference and give back in a way. Karen and I decided we wanted to try and raise awareness of spaying and neutering and the overpopulation problem. It just happened.

Karen has this amazing ability to capture certain things, certain emotions, even in animals, that are just so special and so personal.

All their defenses are down. There's no more big, tough driver. You see the hearts of these guys. It's like Chicken Soup for the Puppy Soul.

It's a community unlike anything I've ever seen.

You wouldn't believe how many of these drivers have animals and how important it is for them to have them. These guys work so hard. They travel every weekend all year, and they all bring their animals.

Jim Busch has more personality in his little paw than I would hope for in a lifetime.
