Chris was the featured SPOTLIGHT VOLUNTEER FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY 2008. 

Meet Chris Sell, a young man, who wanted to help out a place which does a service of helping animals.  Chris, responded to an advertisement on "craigslist" website, that told him about "The Gress Mountain's mission of helping people & animals.  Chris, likes to help Rocky, our Great Pyrenees dog, relax, and then "play" chase in the yard, to exercise this "big mountain dog."  Rocky just loves all the "TLC" Chris gives out when he lends his "helping hands" at TGMR. 

The photos below show Chris with his sidekick Rocky and talking to the pot belly pigs LeRoy and Pearl as he gets to know them. Chris, is trying to teach LeRoy, to run for the food faster, because his counterpart "Pearl Piggy" is gobbling up the food, and getting "fatter" by the moment. Chris, is well rounded and very patient, when working with all the animals.  Chris, would probably say," Putting on the pigs winter coat, may take more practice!  Thanks for caring for all the animals, and everything you do for TGMR is greatly appreciated!
