Colleen does not see borders when it comes to helping animals and lends her help wherever she is needed. Her first step was to be part of ROLDA’s “Have a Heart for Romanian Animals” campaign.

While visiting the ROLDA website, Colleen read about a little boy who cared so much for homeless animals and hoped one day to become a veterinarian. He entered ROLDA’s June 1st drawing contest and won, so Colleen decided to send him an autographed copy of her latest book “The Good Behavior Book for Dogs” which inspired her to do more and accepted to become our charity spokesperson!

Sadly, many people abandon dogs and cats for urinating, shedding, drooling and flea issues, and it’s my personal quest to show people that these issues can be easily remedied and that they can actually have a beautiful and stylish home, while sharing it, happily…with their pets”.
