September, 2020 We can’t change their past, But we can rewrite their future. The Hallie Hill Howler February, 2021 Meet our Board of Directors: Dorothy and Frank Farfone Thank you for this opportunity! Frank and I met in our freshman year of college and have been together ever since! We have been married for more than half a century and have been blessed with three wonderful children and three amazing (of course) grandchildren - all of whom live in our same zip code! (By the way, they followed us to Charleston, we did not follow them!) My family had dogs even before I came along! Frank and I honestly think that you can have a house, but not a home, without a dog. I saw an article about Hallie Hill in a magazine about two weeks after we lost our hound, who had been a rescue. We were so impressed with the article that we drove up to visit the Sanctuary in person. We were looking for another Coonhound. They, unbelievably, had none, but we were so lucky to meet Jennifer and Hel- en on that day. They showed us a little black cocker span- iel and asked if we were interested in her? No, we were not. When we left that day we talked about volunteering, as we were so impressed with Hallie Hill. The next morning, my husband left for a day trip and some- thing made me get in the car and drive back to Hallie Hill. I adopted “the little black cocker” and took her home, put her in our tub and gave her a bath. She was such a sweet baby we gave her the new name of “Baby” and fell in love with her immediate- ly. We did follow through with volunteering at Hallie Hill and now we are both on the Board of Directors. Baby was with us for many years before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We now have a new rescue, a Red Tick Coon Hound named Sienna, who has again filled our hearts with love. 1

Jamie Connolly Born and raised in Massachusetts, I grew up in a three-dog house- hold - meaning we always had three dogs at a time! My parents normally adopted older dogs be- cause they thought no one else would, which resulted in me own- ing 11 dogs in my lifetime. I adopted my current dog, Lady, in 2012 and I constantly remind my husband that she is the real love of my life! She is a rescue mutt from Tennessee, and she has lived with me in two states and even moved with me to Spain for a year! Lady and I moved to Charleston in 2017 and I was lucky enough to meet my hus- band, Brian, here five months lat- er. We adopted a second dog from the ASPCA, Chauncy, and he is the fattest, most sensitive pittie mix, ever! Brian and I were mar- ried in October 2020 and cur- rently reside in West Ashley. Hal- lie Hill has been a blessing for me, I love coming there and spending time with the dogs - the cats are growing on me too! Its such a A T T E N T I O N V O L U N T E E R S! peaceful atmosphere for dogs that Hours to visit Hallie Hill: might not do well in a traditional shelter and it is wonderful to be a 12:00 PM—3:30PM part of an organization that pro- vides a second chance to dogs that Sunday, Monday, need one. My family and friends Wednesday and Friday get daily and unsolicited updates about the pups and their progress.

Hallie Hill Welcomes our new Assistant Director and Adoptions Coordinator: Michele Griffin “I’m thrilled to be joining the HH family! Coming from a background of working at open-admission shelters, where my passion was working with the animals who needed a little (or a lot) “extra”, I’m excited for this transition. At HH I’ll be able to work with the animals without worry of them deterio- rating in a kennel or time and resources running out before they can be placed in the homes they deserve. I live in Summerville with my husband Shawn, daughter Caeley, son Hayden and my three rescue dogs Folly, Lydia and George! I’m from Saugerties, NY. Lived in Charleston while active duty Air Force ‘95-2000, returned for good in 2013.” Michele comes to us with experience as a Volunteer Coordinator, Dog Behav- ior/Enrichment Manager, and lifelong animal lover. She is skilled, profes- sional, and a great communicator with people and animals alike. She is a wonderful addition to our Hallie Hill team, and we are so happy to have her! Be sure to stop in and introduce yourself on your next visit to the Sanctuary! February, 2021 5
