H.R. No. 241 |
|
||
WHEREAS, Sour Lake residents Ian Wyble and his aunt, Karen | ||
Kiesling, have rendered an invaluable service to their fellow | ||
Texans by teaming up to rescue more than 100 lost dogs; and | ||
WHEREAS, The pair's initiative began in December 2019 when | ||
Ian's dog, a blue-eyed German shepherd named Mia that had | ||
previously suffered abuse at the hands of another owner, went | ||
missing; she hasn't been seen since; Ian, who is being raised by his | ||
aunt, launched a search for Mia, and the initiative has grown to | ||
encompass highway billboards and a Facebook page called Mia's | ||
Missing; Ian and Ms. Kiesling have responded to more than 260,000 | ||
messages regarding Mia and her whereabouts, and their campaign has | ||
helped to save the lives of a number of homeless dogs while also | ||
reuniting lost canines with their owners; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ian and Ms. Kiesling are the subjects of a feature | ||
story in the inaugural issue of Wagging Tails, a quarterly digital | ||
publication that debuted in February 2021; the magazine covers a | ||
variety of topics, including dog rescue, adoption and wellness, | ||
training, and caring for puppies and adult and senior canines, and | ||
it offers unique stories from around the world; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ian Wyble and Karen Kiesling have earned great | ||
distinction by helping lost dogs in need and reuniting canines with | ||
their owners, and they are indeed deserving of recognition for this | ||
compassionate and impressive endeavor; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby commend Ian Wyble and Karen Kiesling for | ||
rescuing lost dogs through the Mia's Missing campaign and extend to | ||
them sincere best wishes for continued success with their important | ||
work; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Mr. Wyble and Ms. Kiesling as an expression of high | ||
regard by the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
