Dog lover would be good board member

I share a common bond with District 300 school board candidate Rob Lee. We both own and love our miniature dachshunds and are members of The Chicago Dachshund Lovers Club.

I train dogs by profession. In that process, I train people, too. To say that I have worked with a colorful array of personalities would be an understatement. Since I have come to know Rob, he's touched me in a significant way. It is often said that the way people treat animals is a reflection of their care for the people they live and work with. Rob's leadership and compassion for his own animal's welfare signifies to me that he would deliver the same dedication into service on the District 300 school board.

For some, I can recognize the difficulty of the comparison. His dogs, George and Lily are treated with respect, patience and more importantly, he shows them true leadership. Rob also treats everyone within our organization, The Chicago Dachshund Lovers, with an even higher degree of the same.

Rob is more than qualified to serve on the District 300 School Board, and I encourage his neighbors to vote for him.
