RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Rachel Martin. When dogs go missing in King County, Wash., their chances of turning up again are pretty good. That's because of a Facebook group - Lost Dogs of King County - with more than 34,000 members and a 92% success rate for reuniting people with their pets. The group's founder, James Branson, uses his own dogs to help in the searches. He told The Washington Post happy reunions are rewarding for the dogs, the cats and the people. It's MORNING EDITION.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
