The note below is the response after those amazing DogTors Teams paid a visit to the Waynesville School after their recent tragedy.

From Cristina at the Waynesville school:
Hi Meredith: I just wanted to thank you again for recommending Dogtors. They really came through. Six adorable dogs came to our Performing Arts Center this morning and the kids were able to split off into small groups and really get some much needed puppy love. Several of the staff told me that it was the first time some of those kids smiles since receiving the news of their classmates’ tragedy. The volunteers stayed for 2 hours and were so wonderful and professional with the children and the staff. I sent them all home with goodie bags for their dogs. Please thank your contact for me. Your very grateful volunteer, Cristina
