ABOUT PADS

PADS dogs are raised and trained on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Səl̓ílwətaʔ (Tsleil-Waututh), and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations.

We acknowledge the importance of these lands and their history. We do this to reaffirm our commitment and responsibility in improving relationships between nations and to improving our own understanding of local Indigenous peoples and their cultures.

We breed, raise and train fully certified assistance dogs. Our service (mobility & PTSD) and hearing dogs provide life-changing independence to those with disabilities. Our accredited facility dogs work with community professionals, such as teachers, RCMP and psychologists to help support healthy communities.

PADS is a fully accredited member of Assistance Dogs International.

May is Leave a Legacy Month, and we’d like to again highlight the legacy of Team Vader’s mother, Rose.

Witnessing firsthand the comfort and strength that PADS Vader brought to her daughter, Rose became a dedicated supporter of the PTSD Service Dog Program. To honour Rose and her unwavering support, Team Vader is generously matching donations made from now until National PTSD Awareness Day.

Join us in celebrating Rose’s legacy, and give a gift that changes lives through our bio.

Next to Rose is PADS Vader, a black Lab wearing a blue PADS vest. Below the photo is a blue box with white type that reads ‘Leave a legacy. Rose left a legacy of strong roots and gentle paws.

From puppy-raiser to dream team 😍

For Sequin’s partner, accepting that her hearing loss had got to the point where she needed help was hard. Realizing the incredible impact that an assistance dog can have, however, was easy. After witnessing this impact firsthand as a puppy raiser, she was matched with PADS Sequin as a client.

She says of their match: “What I imagined hasn't been even close to what I am now experiencing with my sweet Sequin.” Sequin provides a sense of safety and the confidence to face a quieted world. “She has given me back a sense of independence that I had lost with my hearing, and for that, I will be forever grateful.”

Read more of Team Sequin’s story through the link in our bio 🔗

Not only is @sweet.serrano a super hero, he’s also a ✨model✨

We’re pleased to have partnered with our friends @dinko.paddles and @candypress on the latest dinko paddle, dog park. From the dog park to the pickleball court, this paddle celebrates fun and friendship fostered in the community.

PADS Serrano embodies this design, working hard to support his community with his sweet demeanour and calming presence. He also knows when to bring the fun with his goofy playful side 🐶

A portion of sales from each of these limited edition paddles comes back to PADS, to help train more superheroes like Serrano. Visit our bio to learn more 🔗

The last of our spring litters have put on their yellow vests and ventured out on their puppy-raising journeys 💛

We're excited to watch these six puppies grow up into incredible dogs with the help of their new raisers. In Calgary, Doane and Shelby met Melanie and Moira, while Shyloh, Goose, and Grant met Lisa, Fred, and Andrea in the Okanagan. Harvey has met his new friends at Dogs with Wings.

Thank you to the Doane Grant Thornton Foundation for your support of this litter, and to Sandra for your care during their first eight weeks 💛

Taking a walk on the wild side 🐶🌲

Our West Coast Advanced Dogs visited Capilano Suspension Bridge recently for some natural thrills and amazing training opportunities. These brave dogs remained composed and engaged as they experienced uneven surfaces, new textures and heights (if you know the Cliffwalk, you know). Thanks @capilanosuspensionbridge for having us!
