The Glycemic Research Institute’s philanthropic
branch, the Sierra Foundation, is
dedicated to providing pet food, medical treatment, bedding,
and other pet needs, as a gift to special pets.
The
Sierra Foundation has selected
this year’s recipient of the 2009-2010 Special
Service Dog Award, which was awarded to Doberman
canine companion Maggie, who faithfully dedicates her life
to her owner, Pamela Wier.
Maggie
is a Seeing-Eye-Companion to Pamela, and is always by her
side, providing love, companionship, and guidance. Pamela
and Maggie have been together for the past seven years.
Despite
their daily challenges, Maggie and Pamela remain outgoing
and cheerful. In their hometown of Colorado Springs, Pamela
is known for her infectious laugh and great sense of humor,
which Maggie seems to thoroughly enjoy. Maggie and Pamela’s
friends, Carl and Patti Grall, nominated Maggie for the 2009-2010
Special Service Dog Award.
The
Sierra Foundation will supply all of Maggie’s
nutritional needs for the next 12-months, including a complete
supply of Merrick Low Glycemic Pet Foods, funded entirely
by the Glycemic Research Institute®.
Congratulations
to Maggie for a job well done !
