In addition,they are also currently involved with the Somerset County "Animal Disaster Response Team" (SCADRT) recently started here in New Jersey.

Both Lois and Tom are active participants in the Arabian Horse Association of NJ (AHANJ) where they have been members for more than 15 years and on the board of directors for more than five years. They have chaired various committees related to the promotion and showing of the Arabian Horse and participated in all of the activities sponsored by the AHANJ. Lois shows in Western Pleasure as well as the Halter classes with her 12 yr old Arab mare.

At home the Birminghams have an active lifestyle with their "small" breeding program of German - American stock Rottweilers. Apollo, their 4 yr old male is a romping stomping 185 lbs of shear muscle. His mother, Sonja Mariah (Sunny) is also of the same stock and is 138 lbs. In addition to the dogs, they also have 8-10 outside cats (depending on who is doing the counting) and two birds, one love bird and and one blue fronted Amazon. Although Lois and Tom wish they had the property to keep their Arabian horse Windell at home, they currently board her with their long time friend and trainer Rhonda Wright in New Hope, PA.
