September, 2020                    We can’t change
                                                                   their past,
                                                                   But we can
                                                               rewrite their future.

                  Meet our Board of Directors:
               Dorothy and Frank Farfone
                                  Thank you for this opportunity! Frank and I met in
                              our freshman year of college and have been together ever
                              since! We have been married for more than half a century
                              and have been blessed with three wonderful children and
                              three amazing (of course) grandchildren - all of whom live
                              in our same zip code! (By the way, they followed us to
                              Charleston, we did not follow them!)
                                  My family had dogs even before I came along! Frank
                              and I honestly think that you can have a house, but not a
                              home, without a dog. I saw an article about Hallie Hill in
                              a magazine about two weeks after we lost our hound, who
                              had been a rescue. We were so impressed with the article
                              that we drove up to visit the Sanctuary in person. We
                              were looking for another Coonhound. They, unbelievably,
                              had none, but we were so lucky to meet Jennifer and Hel-
                              en on that day. They showed us a little black cocker span-
                              iel and asked if we were interested in her? No, we were
not. When we left that day we talked about volunteering, as we were so impressed with
Hallie Hill.
    The next morning, my husband left for a day trip and some-
thing made me get in the car and drive back to Hallie Hill. I
adopted “the little black cocker” and took her home, put her in
our tub and gave her a bath. She was such a sweet baby we gave
her the new name of “Baby” and fell in love with her immediate-
ly. We did follow through with volunteering at Hallie Hill and
now we are both on the Board of Directors. Baby was with us for
many years before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We now
have a new rescue, a Red Tick Coon Hound named Sienna, who
has again filled our hearts with love.

Jamie Connolly
            Born and raised in Massachusetts,
            I grew up in a three-dog house-
            hold - meaning we always had
            three dogs at a time! My parents
            normally adopted older dogs be-
            cause they thought no one else
            would, which resulted in me own-
            ing 11 dogs in my lifetime. I
            adopted my current dog, Lady, in
            2012 and I constantly remind my
            husband that she is the real love
            of my life! She is a rescue mutt
            from Tennessee, and she has lived
            with me in two states and even
            moved with me to Spain for a
            year! Lady and I moved to
            Charleston in 2017 and I was
            lucky enough to meet my hus-
            band, Brian, here five months lat-
            er. We adopted a second dog from
            the ASPCA, Chauncy, and he is
            the fattest, most sensitive pittie
            mix, ever! Brian and I were mar-
            ried in October 2020 and cur-
            rently reside in West Ashley. Hal-
            lie Hill has been a blessing for me,
            I love coming there and spending
            time with the dogs - the cats are
            growing on me too! Its such a              A T T E N T I O N V O L U N T E E R S!
            peaceful atmosphere for dogs that                Hours to visit Hallie Hill:
            might not do well in a traditional
            shelter and it is wonderful to be a                12:00 PM—3:30PM
            part of an organization that pro-
            vides a second chance to dogs that                 Sunday, Monday,
            need one. My family and friends                  Wednesday and Friday
            get daily and unsolicited updates
            about the pups and their progress.         Don’t forget to schedule your visit at

Hallie Hill Welcomes our new
                                                  Assistant Director and
                                                  Adoptions Coordinator:

                                                  Michele Griffin
            “I’m thrilled to be joining the HH family! Coming from a background of
            working at open-admission shelters, where my passion was working with the
            animals who needed a little (or a lot) “extra”, I’m excited for this transition.
            At HH I’ll be able to work with the animals without worry of them deterio-
            rating in a kennel or time and resources running out before they can be
            placed in the homes they deserve.

            I live in Summerville with my husband Shawn, daughter Caeley, son Hayden
            and my three rescue dogs Folly, Lydia and George! I’m from Saugerties, NY.
            Lived in Charleston while active duty Air Force ‘95-2000, returned for good
            in 2013.”

            Michele comes to us with experience as a Volunteer Coordinator, Dog Behav-
            ior/Enrichment Manager, and lifelong animal lover. She is skilled, profes-
            sional, and a great communicator with people and animals alike. She is a
            wonderful addition to our Hallie Hill team, and we are so happy to have her!
            Be sure to stop in and introduce yourself on your next visit to the Sanctuary!

            from Canine Revolution Dog Training!
             One of our goals for our animals at Hallie
              Hill is to help them to be as adoptable as
            possible! Chad visited with some of the staff
             and volunteers on January 19th to provide
             some training on how to approach dogs to
            keep them calm, how to reinforce to increase
                good behavior and how to approach
                 teaching good ‘walking on a leash’
               behavior! We appreciate his time and
            expertise, and look forward to working with
             him in the future to address behaviors that
              may prohibit a dog from being a well be-
February,    haved family member! Thank you Chad!
