Citizen of the Week

Not all dogcatchers are like the cartoon stereotype, scooping up your precious pooch with a big butterfly net when your back is turned. In fact, Jan DeLozier is the opposite. In the three months since she became Eureka Springs' Animal Control Officer, DeLozier has gone far beyond the limitations of her job -- supplied only with food and space for a few animals at the police station, she has opened a private kennel in her own home and has worked diligently to raise funding on her own to provide for the many needs of her four-legged dependents. We admire her love and tenacity.
