Review for Paws of Dale Hollow, Byrdstown, TN, USA
This charity is one of the most responsible and worthwhile organizations I have known--they are worthy of philanthropic support as their work is necessary, well organized, and compassionate. While we were at first uncertain about adopting a dog we did not meet from the internet, Cathy and Mary made this process easy and personal for us. Cathy was patient as an administrator, guiding us through the application process and ensuring that we were the "right" parents for Ellie. Mary helped us to prepare for our new arrival, sharing Ellie's preferences and habits. Meeting Ellie at the "puppy bus" was one of the most joyous experiences of my life! At each turn, the Paws staff and foster mother were responsive to our questions and helpful in their suggestions. Our first vet's visit was positive and she was impressed by the care Ellie received at Paws--her vaccinations were just right and she only needed a few additional shots as appropriate to our Maine environment. I would recommend Paws of Dale Hollow wholeheartedly and unreservedly. We are honored to have Ellie move from the Paws family to our own.
