Saved through her selfless efforts, Anne finds strength and healing in rescuing stranded dogs.

"In the middle of her own battle with cancer she reaches out to save some of the most forgotten and battered victims of Hurricane Katrina. Anne's story is cause for celebration and the parallels between her journey to wellness and reaching out to the "four leggeds" is further proof that we are inextricably connected to our animals and if we choose to listen, the lessons they give us can change our lives."
