Singer/songwriter Mindy Smith, who penned the theme song for the national PBS Series Shelter Me, has partnered with the show to produce Songs For Shelter Me, an 11-track various artist compilation CD. A portion of the proceeds will go to pay for the transport of shelter pets from overcrowded shelters to areas of the country where they will be quickly adopted, assist with spay-neuter programs, education initiatives and innovative adoption events. Hosted by Allison Janney, the fourth episode, Shelter Me: New Beginnings, premieres on PBS in October and features two tracks from the compilation, the Smith-penned theme song, Shelter Me, and Who Saved Who, a duet with Smith and Matthew Perryman Jones.
