Podcast with dog rescuer Emmylou Harris
If you like country music, you are likely familiar with the long career of singer-songwriter Emmylou Harris. Besides being a member of the Grand Ole Opry and selling millions of records and concert tickets, Harris is also active in animal rescue.
She runs Bonaparte's Retreat, a shelter that takes in adoptable pets that face euthanasia in the overcrowded Metro Animal Control, from her home in a Nashville, Tenn., suburb. She is an active supporter and spokeswoman for the Humane Society of the United States.
She also chatted with our music writer, Tad Dickens, about her rescue work last weekend when she performed at Merlefest.
