FREEDOM RIDE - Peter Philipakos is a retired Greek-American soccer/futbol/football midfield player. He found a stray dog, Jack, while playing in Greece. The two formed a close bond (along with Peter’s fiancé, Natasha) and grew inseparable. They decided to take him in and give this special dog a happy, forever home. Peter also decided to take an early retirement from playing the game he loved to make sure Jack had the best of everything. Now, the three of them live in Los Angeles, California, living a sunny new life.
This is the first episode with our new West Coast Correspondents, Ellen Ballon Dante and Lindsay Bird of Deity Animal Rescue.
“Freedom Ride” is a series of individual stories on DSTP that focuses on guests telling their own inspiring, rescue-based tales.
