Anchorage pet bakery gives head start for youth with learning disabilities | INDIE ALASKA

Daisy Nicolas first discovered her knack for baking dog treats while caring for her first dog, Dallas. Now pet treats are her passion as the founder of Drool Central: A Mum and Pup Barkery in Anchorage, Alaska. When Daisy realized the demands of running a business were taking a toll on her, she developed a working partnership with the Anchorage School District to employ young adults with learning disabilities.

I'm not from Alaska, I don't live in Alaska, I've never set foot in Alaska, but I love these short films and look forward to each new one that is released. Thank you Alaska Public Media! :) (From a lifelong Portlander/Oregonian)

Maybe I'm romanticizing it but people are so lucky to live there. It's like if time has stood still there but in a good way..
