San Antonio has a new proud graduate from Therapy Dog School. The use of canines to help people has been known
throughout the world. They have been used for guarding flocks, tracking,
hunting, search and rescue, leading the blind, and in assisting
the deaf and physically challenged. The bond between dog and man
dates back to early history, but it wasnt until recently that
a correlation was acknowledged between this bond and the emotional
health of humans. Studies have shown that a person holding or petting
an animal will cause a lowering of blood pressure, the release of
strain and tension, and can draw out a person from loneliness and
depression.
Fritz graduates Therapy Dog School and he is "dog tired"! |

Kirkland Ranch Suit Dismissed
A long-running family dispute over the Kirkland Ranch is finally out of the courts. The court dismissed a lawsuit July 11 following months of inactivity. The dismissal, agreed to by both parties, removes most of the legal barriers to the sale of the 1,700-acre ranch. The Kirkland Ranch has been part of Pasco County lore for decades.
Raymond Kirkland In 2004, Raymond Kirkland was in poor health, and his three children
- Richard Kirkland, Laura Kirkland and Elizabeth Denney - took over running
the ranch. In 2004, they sued to prevent their father's
siblings - Jack Kirkland, Elizabeth Holloway and Anna Kirkland - from
selling the ranch to a developer.
