"“When you’re involved with saving lives,” Ward said, “…sometimes, it’s a life and death situation,” and time is of the essence. “We’re known for rescuing dogs, but we’ve also rescued cats, horses, pigs, goat, sheep. And when you do that (save lives), and you give more of yourself. We actually get more pleasure of doing things for others, than doing for ourselves. We don’t buy anything for ourselves anymore. We don’t need anything extra. It’s just about the way you look at life. In my opinion, and in the opinion of my wife Tracey,” continued Ward, “…life is the most precious commodity in the world. Every life is precious. That’s how we look at it.”"
