 Michelle is the reason everything here at Love Dogs runs smoothly! She is our Administrative Coordinator Extraordinaire! From handling all of the front line communications to fosters, adopters and our veterinarians, Michelle also oversees the medical and wellness programs for all of the dogs as well as behind the scenes paperwork, bookkeeping and ordering  necessary for all things Love Dogs and all things Love Horses!! Michelle has a dedication to the job that is purely astounding. She sees each dog as an individual and will treat them as such. Michelle is kind, caring and opens her heart to every person and dog that comes through Love Dogs. She is our "Mama Michelle" .. for animals and humans..  her phone is always on and sending reminders 24/7.. she is masterful at diffusing, soothing and solving traumas and dramas..  her sense of humor and delightful story telling keeps us all laughing!! We don't know what we would do without our dear Michelle!

 Animals make me HAPPY! They continuously bring me into the present tense and communicate in endlessly fascinating and endearing ways!  To have the power to save animals from tragic and often dire circumstances is a gift in and of itself, but to then have the know how and ability to engender trust, affection and HILARITY through communication with those animals is a profoundly moving and enriching experience!
The richness and depth of understanding and connection that is possible between humans & animals is limitless.. I can't get enough or share enough of what {and how} animals say!

Deb
Deb has been working in animal rescue for over 20 years, from city-run to private shelters, but this is her best gig ever. She has been a kennel cleaner, dog walker, adoption counselor, vet assistant, enrichment team member, transporter, Board member. She believes deeply in the power of dogs, and has strived to incorporate living in the here and now, as they do, into her varied pursuits. Dogs have healed, taught, embarrassed, frustrated, emboldened, energized, challenged, and cracked her up. They have simultaneously broken her heart and loved her more than she thought possible. Deb is known to her canine friends as a treat dispenser. She'd also like them to know that she is a poetry writer and bicyclist. Deb lives in Manhattan with 3 littles and a human partner who does a lot of compromising, as Deb can be difficult to understand if you're not a dog.

Nick
Nick left climbing the corporate ladder to run with the dogs and hasn't looked back! He has been working with dogs for 2+ yrs but has been successfully handling dogs for over a decade. Nick has an incredible calm energy when interacting with dogs. Even the most untrusting of canines will find comfort and safety around Nick!

​Even when he's not working with dogs he's with his own - Harley (a Love Dogs alum) - and his loved ones either enjoying the outdoors or kicking back for a lazy day at home.

Morgan
Morgan initially began her career in the medical field, though after realizing how much she preferred working with animals over people, she chose to pursue caring for them instead. Morgan has prior experience handling wolves and working in conservation. Helping any animal is what drives her and that is what brought her to For The Love of Dogs.

She is a proud dog mom of three amazing pups: Henry, Rosie and Jacob! When Morgan isn’t at work, you can find her hiking the trails with her dogs, cooking a delicious vegetarian meal or relaxing at home enjoying a glass of wine.
