Lowrey Mumford is making a difference for Pet Partners

Lowrey is an ardent supporter of Pet Partners. She believes in the positive impact volunteers working with their pets as registered therapy animal teams are making nationally by bringing comfort and empathy to the people they visit each day. Recognizing the significance of sharing animals with people in need, Lowrey initially became a monthly supporter of Pet Partners. In more recent years, Lowrey decided to include the organization in her estate plan, as she is passionate about the mission of the organization, and she also appreciates the growth and stability of Pet Partners.

In 2010, Lowrey knew her rescued lurcher dog, Twiglet, needed a job. That was when Lowrey first learned about Pet Partners, and she subsequently became involved with the organization. The required training to become a therapy animal team built trust between her and Twiglet as partners, and Twiglet gained the confidence he so desperately needed.

Once they were a registered team, Lowrey and Twiglet began volunteering in a juvenile detention center where Twiglet was a star among the young men who were housed at the center. They continued in that role until the team relocated to a new area.

Currently Lowrey is not registered with Pet Partners. But that's not to say she isn't busy with her two dogs-quite the opposite. Lowrey has two silken windhounds, Snug and Remy, who keep Lowrey active in her Colorado community. Snug is involved in scent work, competing in trials, and has just started tracking with search and rescue. Lowrey has found these activities to be rewarding, for both her and Snug. She is meeting other people who are also passionate about training and caring for their dogs. Snug and Remy love to frequently hike with their friends, human and canine both.

We're appreciative of the commitment that Lowrey has made to Pet Partners. Lowrey has chosen to support these efforts by not only making a monthly donation to Pet Partners but also by planning for the future and including Pet Partners in her will.
