BEN FM’s Longtime Dog Jockey Gloria Was Adopted Through PAWS
For 13 years BEN FM had a Dog Jockey working full-time for the station, before she passed away due to bone cancer. We loved her dearly and will always be thankful to PAWS for bringing her to us, and saving countless other animals every single day. Gloria was special, and family to everyone working at the station and we will always miss her.
