Quotes
"Each trainer works with the dogs to help them rebuild confidence and rebuild trust in humans." - Melissa Novelli
"It might not be the type of dog that you first meet, like Willis, and you're like, oh, you're so cute. And then you overwhelm him and surprise him, and he's not ready for that. It's too much stimulation. But if you're willing to come and meet him once and let him come up to you and work at his pace and then gradually move on and each session gets better, then he's well, well rounded." - Michael Novelli
"We're facing this crisis in the community and somebody's got to do something and that somebody is us and our Pawtastic Friends team." - Michael Novelli" - Michael Novelli
