Paws and Claws have been running their shelter for 20 years, received a call informing them of an inspection within the hour.

President Michael Kerr said " I gave a full guided tour of our excellent facility".
For dogs staying at the shelter, Michael said "its a comfort zone, it has a wall, fence and a roof" adding, that all the dogs had been vaccinated, flee treated, wormed, fed, walked, were dry and most importantly, loved.

Michael was undeterred by the visit because he said they conform to all the hygeine standards.  "Its to our benefit that harassment complaints have been made to the facility and documented" he said.
