"Even though I’m not a pet lover, have never had a pet of my own, after listening to Allen Anderson speak I realized what a phenomenal impact these little creatures have on their owners. I enjoyed Allen’s speech very much, and it inspired me to be more understanding when I see people interact with their pets and why people see their pets as part of their family. Allen’s insight of this subject is outstanding, and I would recommend him for any event.”
--Anna Dee Olson, The Amish Lady, author of Growing Up Amish, www.GrowingUpAmish.com

--Arlene Forbes, registered nurse, geriatrics

I feel it is appropriate for any age audience."
--Helen Gurevich, director of programs, Menorah Plaza, Menorah West, Minneapolis

"I've had the good fortune to see Allen speak to audiences ranging in size from a dozen to thousands.
