About Under A Kansas Sky: True Stories Of A Sanctuary For
Product description You must live for a cause greater than yourself ~ Our father, Edward Michael Luby, Captain, USN, was guided by these words taught to young midshipmen at the United States Naval Academy which he later passed down to my sister and me. I found my cause 40 years ago when I brought two abandoned dogs from the streets of Puerto Rico to the states and began my journey in animal welfare. The Second Chance Animal Refuge Society (SCARS) is a 501 (c) (3) no kill dog shelter located on 50 acres on the edge of the Kansas Flinthills. Homeless and abandoned dogs for miles around are treated for medical problems, exercised, socialized, and eventually adopted to forever homes. If they are never chosen for adoption they remain here where they are cared for and loved. This journey has ushered over 1000 dogs on the road to SCARS. These are just a few of their heroic stories. About the Author Maureen Luby Cummins was born in Washington D.C., the daughter of a career Naval officer and graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy. She and her sister , Michele, grew up living all over the world. Maureen attended high schools in Norfolk, Virginia; Long Beach, California; Yokohama, Japan and Alexandria, Virginia. She graduated from Longwood University in Virginia with a degree in English and has a master’s degree as a reading specialist from Washburn University, Topeka, Kansas. Maureen lives in Auburn, Kansas, is married to Terry Cummins, a CPA, and has a married daughter, Meredith, a son-in-law, Bryan, and a ten year old grandson, Evan. She is the Operations Manager of SCARS, a no kill sanctuary for homeless dogs.
