It’s #InternationalAssistanceDogWeek and we want It’s #InternationalAssistanceDogWeek and we want to take opportunity to share how proud (and grateful) we are to be the first fully accredited member of @adi.intl in Canada. It is no small feat to achieve this accreditation, and demands the highest standards of operations, training and client care. ADI also sets exceptional standards of behaviour that PADS is committed to meeting or exceeding for all working teams. This ensures that every dog that is in training and working in public builds the public opinion of assistance dog teams. It’s important to note, we do these things not for our own sake, but for the clients whose lives are changed by having a canine partner at their side. Happy International Assistance Dog week and thank you ADI for all you do to support our life-changing work.
