Leslie Long has found her life passion, caring and advocating for animals who are sick and injured, and have no family to take them in.
Her self-named rescue service has taken countless dogs and cats off the streets in the East Kootenay region and placed them into loving homes.
There was Morgana, a mastiff St. Bernard cross who was rescued after her owner was diagnosed with bone cancer and Tina, a black cat, who found a second life after nearly dying from infection and winter weather as a stray.
