Pet Projects
Whether abuse, neglect, adoption, or low-cost spaying and neutering, there are several dedicated groups in Sierra County who focus on providing care and homes for companion animals.
Durrae Johanek
Durrae Johanek is a Pennsylvania native, transplanted to Montana in 1992, who has fallen in love with T or C, where she snowbirds with her husband, John. To keep her off the streets, John forces her to create art for his ZIA Gallery. In a shoebox under her bed is a diploma from Kutztown State University (yes, that’s a real school) that says she was qualified to write 4 books on Montana and work as an editor for Bird Watcher’s Digest and assorted medical publishers for way too long.
