Who doesn’t love animals? We all do. Irrespective of the job we do and the areas where we live in pets are considered a bundle of joy by many.

A friend of mine who works for Sirius Star Marketing as a direct marketing executive is so serious about his work that never will you think that he has time for a pet. I was surprised when I visited his home. There were 6 dogs right at the door to greet me. And my friend was telling how he always found time for them. All his dogs looked well-fed and taken care of the best manner. As I walked out of his urbanized locality, I was even more surprised to spot most of the houses having pets and many of them taking them out for a walk.

I dropped in for a chat with a proud pet-owner in the locality and while he spoke about a lot many things, all related to pets, one caught my attention. He was telling about the various Summits for Urban Animal Strategies that were in full swing these days. The mission of these summits was to promote strategies that build healthy communities for pets and people and to recognize those who achieve success in this field. How noble, I thought to myself! I went home and did a quick read-up on these summit series. With a vision is to gather executive level thought leaders who can advance the state of the art in urban animal strategies, these summits I felt was a great idea in an evolving world.
