After meeting Judy at a signing, Manolo Blahnik and his team made donation to the Briarcliff Animal Foundation. We would like to thank him and his team for their generosity. Here is an email from Geri Swanson to the Manolo Blahnik team…

Katie,

On behalf of the Briarcliff Animal Foundation, thank you for your kindness and generosity. Because of the support of your company and others, we are able to continue our work. Please let me know if the certificate meets your needs. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you need any changes.

I thought Manolo Blahnik would be interested to know that Manolo (nicknamed “Manny”) will be on the Animal Planet in February on “It’s Me Or The Dog.” Although he is a pure bread poodle, his previous homeless life in the “hood’ left him with some behavioral issues! Judy, his new owner and Foundation Volunteer, took him to auditions for the show and he was selected! The show will air in February. Time magazine has been following Victoria Stilwell, the shows trainer and just interviewed Judy about Manny’s training transformation. Manny is becoming quite our little star!

With Warm Regards,

Geri Swanson

Director, Briarcliff Animal Foundation
