Congrats to Atticus

I shall send along a www.NewburyportPosts.com doggie cap for him to wear.

From Tom Ryan

Hello all,

Last night I received an email from an associate producer for the Dogs 101 television show on Animal Planet. The show is produced by Powderhouse Productions out of Somerville, MA and they had heard about Atticus' exploits in the mountains. After they Googled the heck out of us and we had several conversations with the people them, their many visits to my website and their reading my writing, it is definite - Atticus is to be make his national television debut. He (and our relationship) will be featured on one of the upcoming Dogs 101 shows.

Earlier tonight, Ann MacMullen, senior producer of the Dogs 101, emailed the following good words:

"We are very inspired by you and Mr. Finch and hope to bring your story to wide audience of dog lovers! In addition, having worked with Angell, we're very happy to give them any positive press possible. They are truly angels over there. Thank you so much for your time - this story is very important to us and we want to do it justice!

Powderhouse Productions will be sending a crew to the White Mountains in about two weeks. They will spend the day with Atticus and me and they plan on climbing a mountain with us. (The mountain has yet to be determined, as does the rest of the filming itinerary.) I'm not sure when the show will air but rest assured I will announce it in email updates and on our blog.

Onward, by all means,
Tom (& Atticus)
