Lassie visited Moore, Oklahoma one year after the disaster and visited schools and child care centers to help kids learn about Disaster Prepardness.
"We're thrilled that Lassie is joining the team. Who better to show children that emergency preparedness can help them feel safe, not scared?" said Kathy Spangler, Save the Children's vice president for U.S. programs. "We're excited for Lassie to offer comfort when disaster strikes and to help inspire the basic protections our nation's children still desperately need."

April 2014- Lassie is now an AKC Registered dog! It was long thought that the old records tracing back to the original dogs of Rudd Weatherwax were lost in a fire on Rudd's ranch, but recently those records were recreated and submitted for approval to the AKC in the fall of 2013 through the Administrative Reseach Registration process. As the 10th generation direct descendant Lassie, those records, along with other documentation submitted that proved the continuation of the same genetic line of dogs, allowed Lassie to become a fully registered AKC dog!
