U of M Students at Paws & Claws

Paws+Claws Rescue & Resort was honored to host the U of M College of Veterinary Medicine students participating in SIRVS (Student Initiative For Reservation Veterinary Services) whose mission is to train future veterinarians by serving communities in need. While in the Leech Lake area, they volunteered to perform spay & neuter surgeries for a few of our shelter pets under the guidance of Dr. Steve Ekholm of Walker Animal Hospital.
