Stivers proud to share that the Ohio Chamber of Commerce

the Year by the National Association of State Chambers.

also received the greatest Growth in Total Revenue award for
the Association of State Chamber Professionals. So that just means
they're growing, right. They continue to add members, to continue
to publicize all the great things that are happening in
businesses around the state of Ohio. So I thought it

(02:20):
was really cool. I saw these little awards that were
up and we'll have them on again soon. But congratulations
to the Ohio Chamber of Commerce. You deserve it. Steve,
Matt all that you're doing and your entire team just.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
A great group of folks.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
We should have Matt bring Steve with him one point
when he comes on the show again.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, we totally should because they're making moves for the
state of Ohio, that's for sure.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
Chris, Do we have time to play mchaalel that little
bit of sound that you and I picked out last week.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Hey, let me just set you this up for you. Okay.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
This was a girl who heart her heart broke because
she saw that this dog. They were making postings about
this really large, overweight dog that could barely move, and
she's like, I need to adopt this dog.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
It's like my six hundred pound life dog kind.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Of yeah, could not move. So she's like, I'm gonna
help this dog.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
I'm gonna nurse this dog back and give it a
new life and then try to find a home for it.
So listen to this a little bit of sound Okay.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
She had no interest in anything, sweet good girl Prennie.
But as soon as we found that she likes tennis balls,
her little mentality changed quite a lot. That was the
moment where I was like, Okay, she wants to fight
for this and I'm going to back her all the way.

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Are you happy?

Speaker 4 (03:44):
She started taking steps on her own.

Speaker 6 (03:46):
When for any slowly started making progress and slowly started
losing weight, we figured out that she really loves being pets.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
What pet far time?

Speaker 1 (04:01):
So after.

Speaker 5 (04:05):
The biggest loser for dogs, Yeah, and then after they
found out that this little fat dog loved tennis balls,
this company donated hundreds of tennis balls and this girl
was like, this is this dog's best day of its life.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
The whole idea was to nurse this dog back to health,
help it lose weight, walk again, and then adopt it
out again. But this lovely human decided she couldn't part
with this dog, so she kept it as her own.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
That is some good news.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
That is really that's the efitomy of good news. Thank

we do.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
This, that is exactly why, oh my gosh, to have
it upon your heart to say you know it, I
think I can help this dog. You just have to
do things like that, and the difference you make in
that life, that big fat life is now a big
healthy life, big healthy life because somebody cared, Because one
person cared.
