Linda Simon's house is always full of dogs. No matter in which state or country she and her family live or travel, so do the family dogs. Even when Linda's daughter, Michelle, attended the Sorbonne in Paris, her little Yorkie, Annabelle, was at her side. The real Sadie was born in England and sailed to America on the QE2. Due to a birth defect, Sadie really did have wheels and only one eye, yet in the whole world there could never be a sweeter, happier, more loving, or hungry Pug than Sadie. Linda and Michelle devote time to Lhasa Happy Homes rescue group in Santa Monica, CA. Joined by their current adoptee, Izzy, a Brussels Griffon, they walk every year to raise money for homeless dogs. Linda was born and raised in San Francisco and has a degree in photography from the San Francisco Art Institute. She and her husband, David, live in Malibu, CA, with Izzy, a little heartbeat at Linda's feet. Her favorite breed is rescue.
