Yer Big Dog makes Jerry a TV star!

This just in from our friends over at tripawds.com ...

We owe a huge debt of gratitude to Yer Big Dog for sending the folks at Nature – the PBS series – our way, back in March of last year. When they contacted him about a TV show in the works, he mentioned how we traveled the U.S. with our three-legged canine cancer hero Jerry, after selling our home and business when he got sick.

Well, the Nature crew hooked up with us at Jerry's first oncology vet visit in Santa Fe to film the incredible bond we shared with our furry soul mate. At the time, we signed a Non Disclosure Agreement so we couldn't talk about it. Now it's official:

We are excited to announce the upcoming premiere of NATURE’s WHY WE LOVE CATS AND DOGS airing nationally on PBS Sunday, February 15th at 8PM (check local listings) NATURE is produced by THIRTEEN in association with WNET.ORG for PBS.

With the amazing trek Luke and the Boys have undertaken, we always wondered ... why us? But Jerry is just one of a number of pets whose owners were interviewed for the program which focuses on animal behavior experts answering the question of why we love our animal friends so much.

Thank you Big Dog, we know Jerry is walking with you in Spirit, and we continue to wear our Puppy Up! wristbands and tell everyone who asks about your passion to find the cause of cancer. Keep up the good work.
