Staff with Turtle (pictured on the right)
Gibson Sothebys International Realty agents Kyle & Leslie Mann of Weston are donating
$1,000 to the Animal Rescue League (ARL) of Boston
for every home listing they sell this year. Kyle and Leslie have
successfully represented buyers and sellers across Bostons
Metrowest suburbs for more than a decade.
The couple first got involved with the ARL a few years ago when
they heard a news story about Turtle, a severely injured bait dog
who had been cruelly dumped by the side of the road in the middle
of the winter. The Manns hosted a fundraiser to help cover Turtles
extensive medical costs and to help raise awareness about animal
cruelty. Through this work, they gained a huge appreciation for all
that the ARL staff and volunteers do every day to rescue animals
from suffering, cruelty, abandonment, and neglect.
Happily, Turtle has recovered and is now thriving in her new
home. One of Turtles rescuers, Debby Vogel, the Manager of
Volunteer and Educational Programs, went on to state, After months
of recovery she looks like a completely different dog – she just
looks amazing. Shes doing really, really well.
Leslie Mann added, It was crushing to see an animal so
mistreated. Fortunately, thanks to the ARL, Turtle has made a full
recovery and is in a loving home. Its hard to describe the joy we
had in seeing how well shes now doing. We are immensely thankful
for the kindness and dedication of everyone at ARL to help Turtle
and so many other animals like her get a second chance.
We congratulate Kyle and Leslie on all of their efforts for the
ARL of Boston and are encouraged by their dedication to the League
in 2013 and beyond due to the vast impact they will undoubtedly
make.
