I have worked with dogs most of my life in one capacity or another.

I adopted from PAWS in January of 2008, but unfortunately it did not work out. I did everything in my power to make it right but it was beyond my control. I contacted JoAnne (aka Fearless Leader) four months later and she was very compassionate and understanding.

I knew I wanted to help animals again in some way. PAWS is an organization that is so loving, caring, honest, giving, and compassionate not only before and during the adoption but after also that I just had to be part of it!

I have received so many blessings since joining this awesome organization! I have met new friends, and Wonderful adopters and adopted the most fantastic companion that makes my days much more Sunny. For the first time in a long time I feel like I am making a difference.

PAWS has given me hope that someday no dog will have to go without all the amazing things they deserve.
