Big News!!!!

Leslie let us all know the other day she has officially resigned from her full time job at the State Fire Marshal's office effective April 30, 2015.

She and #teamriverview will be handling dogs full time starting May 1st.  Leslie has had this dream since she was a teenager and we are all so happy it is coming true for her!

We can't wait to hit some new places this summer since we don't have to worry about a full time work schedule to come back to.

Check with Leslie for an up to date schedule.
