In response to the many pet parents, pets that go to work, and foster parents, who would like to share their stories in Jewish Scene Magazine and at jewishscenemagazine.com, we will be adding the column in each issue. I hope that you enjoy all of these stories about the 60 YEARS OF pets that bring so much joy to their families, of rescue dogs who have found their new homes, and of foster parents (page 18) who provide a safe haven for those still SERVING CLIENTS searching for their forever homes. In honor of the dog days of summer, we asked Chef Josh WITH INTEGRITY AND Steiner of Strano! Sicilian Kitchen & Bar to share his favorite pet treat recipes on page 6. We’ll meet his dog, Tina, in an upcoming issue. And mixologist Michael Luckey, of Interim Restaurant & Bar, came up with some DEDICATION of his summer cocktail picks to go along with the theme on page 7. TO EXCELLENCE.
