Heartwarming Article: Sedona Buddhists Save Dogs left after Hurricane


An interesting article from The Arizona Republic, via The Buddhist Channel. I thought it was worth sharing...

One past life can lead to any other life, which means a person could come back as a lost dog. That is why Buddhists based in Sedona are now caring for more than 100 dogs at an Arizona ranch. The dogs had been abandoned in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

My gut call is that everyone can relate to this in some way:

"The traditional teaching from the Buddha is that any animal could be somebody you love," said Alana Elgin, a Buddhist nun with the Kunzang Palyul Chöling in Sedona.
