She is the producer and director of the show “From The Pound to The Penthouse” You can see it on JLTV ( Jewish Live Television ). We all know in the ELS community that dogs are angels walking amongst us. Well even angels need angels, Susan Rubin is a guardian angel and a voice for animals with a heart warming message for all our furry friends.

I actually met Susan in November of 2014 and I’m very happy I did. After talking for an hour or two that night, I went home and said to myself; “wow, that’s one of those people you don’t forget” The way she spoke of animals and rescue was so impactful to me. It was very soothing listening to her voice. You will see what I mean when you watch the video in this article.

Susan’s personal rescues and fosters are number one the priority list. 100 percent of any funds go towards the rescued animals. Any donations are 100 percent tax delectable as it is a 501(c)(3). She has made quite the name for herself amongst celebrities and leverages their reach purely for the sake of animals. Glitz and glamour are not what she’s out for. Susan looking to rescue, rehabilitate, foster and adopt out to loving and caring homes.

Sammy & Family can unequivocally say, Susan is on the front lines fighting for animal rescue, kindness and equality. We are 100 percent behind her. As we grow financially, she will be one of the organizations we fund.

From the Pound to the Penthouse takes you into the private lives of celebrities and their treasured rescued pets. Each half-hour episode will features 2 stories interviews with the rich and famous – along with the dogs, cats, horses, and rabbits who love them–intertwined with first-hand footage and eye witness accounts of heart-rending, and often dangerous real-life rescues–complete with happy ending! The production team has already shot interviews and intimate footage with over half a dozen well-known celebrities, and has access to many more.

This Video below is a Must watch, powerful message.

Hounded by paparazzi, celebrities fiercely guard their privacy with bodyguards, tinted windows and even by covering their children’s faces–but ask them about their pets, and suddenly you’re in their living room, privy to some of their most personal, surprising, and honest conversations

Each episode of “From the Pound to the Penthouse” will include the most heart warming emotional payoff: a short video clip of the rescued shelter pet with her new, loving, adoptive family. Through an interactive website, podcasts and other Internet tools, not just the one pet featured, but many homeless animals all over the country will be adopted EACH episode. “From the Pound to the Penthouse” will forever change the way people view shelter animals. This special program is already increasing the number of abandoned animals who are saved from death by being adopted into loving homes. Almost all of us have wanted to get a second chance, to make a difference and to be special. “The Pound to the Penthouse” can fulfill that desire for viewers, if only vicariously.
