0033_amy_dalton_2Our storyteller for today actually reached out to me by leaving a voicemail on the website, which reminds me, have I told you guys that you can do that?! If I did it was probably ages ago, because I don’t remember it. It’s actually pretty simple, especially if you’re on your phone more often than a computer, instead of typing up an email you just visit myrescuerocks.net/contact and scroll down past the contact form and click on the big green button that says start recording. You get 90 seconds to leave me a voicemail, you can even review the message before you hit send, it’s pretty cool!

You can use this feature like today’s guest did, to give me the twitter version of your rescue story, if you’re interested in sharing it, you can also drop me a line to tell me what you think of the show, or to submit your response to any questions I put out there. You have 90 seconds, say whatever you want! If you take the time to leave me a message I’ll probably share it in a future episode! So go ahead, visit myrescuerocks.net/contact and let me listen to you for a change!

Here’s the teaser I got from today’s storyteller:

Amy’s recording transcript:

Hi Rebekah, my name is Amy Dalton and I would like to tell you the story of my 3 rescue dachshunds. I grew up with labs and golden retrievers, but one day I got a dachshund puppy, rescued one from a gentleman living in a single-wide trailer. And that first dachshund rescue led to a second one that I got from a rescue organization, which led to a third one, that is probably the best story of all. I would like to share that story with you. So if you want more information, I’m absolutely willing to write it up, or talk with you on the phone. I enjoy your podcast, thank you.

Well I cut out some of the juicier details in this clip because I didn’t want to spoil the story… but let’s just say, I was intrigued. So I immediately got in touch with her about coming on the show. This is Amy Dalton, and this is her story… hit play above to hear it now!
