I took the liberty of speaking about this matter with Caroline at the close of the potentially dangerous dog hearing today. She told me that she was interested in serving but also wanted you and I and others to know that she was considering whether to serve a second term on the ASAB. I am copying her on this email at her request and because it sounds like you and she should have a conversation in the near future.
