When Glenn originally wrote about the mama dog he rescued, we jumped at the chance to adopt one of the pups.

Glenn's ex-editor with Salon created The Dodo, a website dedicated to animal rescues, and contacted us for pics. He featured Gigi and all of her siblings that Glenn found homes for. Please share the web link on Facebook and follow on Twitter. It would be great to see this newly launched site take off.
