University of Louisville RFP introduce our residents to "Paws with a Purpose"

A letter of thanks to the leaders of "Paws with Purpose" from Lora Haynes.


Hello Elaine, Gabrielle, Sheilah, Ann, and Stephanie (and 3 smart pups!)-

 

I would just like to say, again, what an amazing event you provided for our Resilient Families Project (RFP) programs last night!  We recognize what an effort it was to coordinate your schedules (the 5 of you, along with collecting and returning your dogs) and to engage with such a large group (>90 individuals) for a full 90 minutes!  This was such a wonderful opportunity for our families and our team to learn about Paws with Purpose (PWP) AND to see the power of great training, great patience, and a great idea in the effort to serve individuals with physical challenges.  Our families and our team alike are really just in awe of the work you do and the abilities you bring out in your (gorgeous!) dogs.  You all are such wonderful personalities who are clearly dedicated to your mission, and I can't begin to thank you or appreciate your work enough.
