Dundee loves to go to their kennel.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">Sincerely,\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"style_1\">Carol and Gene Adkins<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">I first came in contact with Paula and Mountain Pet Resort in the Spring of 1995. I had purchased a Newfoundland and desired basic to advanced obedience training. I also had a Maltese who had become quite spoiled and unruly.Within\u00a0two and a half of the four week training period, I visited Paula &amp; and my dogs. My Newfoundland, Dolly, could (on command) sit\/stay, down\/stay, heel, come, and go to &#8220;place&#8221;.\u00a0My Maltese, Peaches, was housebroken and learning her commands. Since their stay with Paula, I find myself complementing her daily. Both of my dogs have become productive and loving members of our family. I attribute their adjustment and our enjoyment of them to Paula.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">Although her training talents seemed almost miraculous to me, my greatest admiration with Paula rested on her ability to relate to my dogs. Paula has an extraordinary rapport with animals and her talent to gain the respect of the dog and at the same time his\/her affection is amazing.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">I have since used Mountain Pet Resort for boarding purposes and recommend Paula to all my friends. It never fails when I have\u00a0returned from my trips that Paula will have a story to tell about my dogs indicating that she truly spends time with them, learning their individual personalities. I have often joked to my friends not to be offended if Paula does not know their name, only their pets name. Paula knows dogs and her expertise surpasses\u00a0anyone of which I have come in contact.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">The children&#8217;s literature character Dr. Doolittle has the reputation of being able to &#8220;talk and walk with the animals&#8221;. Paula is the Dr. Doolittle of the &#8217;90s. A dog in Paula&#8217;s care is more than fortunate &#8211; he is in heaven.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Footer\"><span class=\"style_1\">Sincerely,\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"style_1\">Lenora C.
