Let's raise the WOOF! MEET RINGO! Ringo is the most energized little puppy you will ever meet. He is a 1-year-old German Shepard X Wirehair Terrier and he is a rescue! His dog-Mom, Kate, says he is the smartest little puppy she has ever had; now she may be a little biased but who wouldn’t be looking at this precious face. Ringo’s superpower is his ability to get all the dogs in the park up and running and jumping and playing. Here’s what the other dogs have to say about him: “Ringo is a super runner.” “Ringo is my best buddy.” No better endorsement than from your peers! If you see Ringo riding around the park, please give him a wave and a big shout-out to Kate for having room in her heart for a rescue puppy. MEET MADDIE! Maddie is a 15-year-old Golden Retriever. Maddie was rescued from life of neglect beneath a barn porch where she was found emaciated, covered in skin sores and trying to fend for herself. Sometime after she was rescued, Maddie developed a serious infection with a very small chance of recovery; her owner Rob spent days by her side as she fought to recover. This led to what the vets considered a miracle recovery and a deep abiding bond between Maddie and Rob. Rob believes that rescues are different. His experience is that rescues remain inordinately grateful and loyal to their owners. Maddie continues to have a wonderful, loving and comfortable life. In her old age she has trouble getting round and gets to ride everywhere in her blue wagon. Maddie’s magic power is her capacity to love everyone she meets! If you see Maddie riding around in her stately blue carriage, say hi and experience that big Golden smile.

HEALTH & WELLNESS SPOTLIGHT My name is Elizabeth Burke, age 82 and have been married to Garnet for 64 years. I have lived in Arizona since 1967, first in Mesa before moving to Payson, Arizona in December 1999. While in Mesa I played softball for 10 years. In 1990, I started square and round dancing and continued this activity until 2013. In Payson I did some hiking, joined Curves and also Silver Sneakers at the gym. January 1029 we came to ViewPoint for a few months doing the Walk Away Program and continue to do this exercise each winter when available. I believe exercise is so important, at any age, to one's health even in small amounts each day.
