"Amy is constantly at Parvo taking care of the pups. She brings the pups fresh chicken / turkey from whole foods market to entice the ones to eat. She is competent with her medical skills and always looking for what is best for the pups. She always willinging to go the extra mile to make sure the pups are comfortable and she gives them love and attention even if it took us 5 hours to finish out treatments. She is also always cleaning because she doesn't want our pups or volunteers to have to work in filth. She has often not eaten lunch so she can make sure the Parvo unit is clean. She has stayed 8 hours back in the Parvo ward to find if up things. On days she is not volunteering she is staying up to date with all the pups progress by watching the reports. She shows the pups as well as her co volunteers love and compassion. I couldn't have asked to have a better co volunteer. She also does ruff tails and has been fostering suki for a year and half." - Nicole Freeland, fellow volunteer
"I have been volunteering with Amy in the parvo unit for 1 year now and I am just blessed to know this person, this amazing human being. On her days in the parvo ward, she stops by whole foods and gets our puppies fresh chicken and turkey just for them to try to entice them to eat. Often times, after our treatments are done, we have stayed longer just to snuggle the puppies even when Amy's stomach is growling. Amy has held and whispered loving sweet words into a puppy's ears has they took their last breath. She has stayed with me in the parvo ward for 8 hours because she wanted to continue to help intake puppies or just clean the unit. She is always concerned not only about the puppies welfare but unit has a whole. She always make sure it is clean to help prevent flys from bugging our pups. She always makes sure the pups aren't lying in their own vomit and even if she has to change their towels multiple times because they keep vomiting , she will do it to make sure they don't have to smell their own vomit and maybe the pups can get somewhat comfortable. She also fosters dogs and have successfully got them adopted. One dog Suki, she had for 1 year and half. She has treated every single one of those dogs as her own and cries bittersweet tears when they get adopted. She is quick to swoop in and save the day when she is available to foster. I can't say it enough, she is just an amazing person and volunteer." - Anonymous
"Amy always goes above and beyond for our dogs in the Parvo ward. She regularly brings in fresh chicken and turkey for them (so they have something more tempting to eat than wet dog food), stays a long time, taking photos to post to our FB page to update everyone about our pups and taking care of the Parvo ward (staying extra time to clean, do laundry, and give the pups extra cuddles). This is all in addition to her bubbly positive attitude. I know Amy does a lot more for APA as well, as I see her posts on facebook about walking dogs and other tasks."- Breanne Cope, fellow volunteer
