Midi’s turn to get the cartoon treatment - Did you know Misu is a Bernese Mountain Dog and was actually named after the popular Italian 🇮🇹 desert 🍰 she loves car rides, shopping, dog ice cream and going to help young people as part of PAWS sessions.

🌞 Wrapping Up for Summer with Gratitude 🐾

As we close the chapter on a sun-soaked and emotionally charged term, we just want to say a huge thank you to our incredible PAWS practitioners. 💛

It’s been hot. It’s been full-on. It’s been filled with big emotions and big wins. Through it all, you’ve stayed committed to our mission of helping young people navigate tricky times—with the unwavering support of your four-legged partners. 🐶💬

Swipe through some highlights from this term:

📸 Bailey and one of our brilliant YP, proud of the epic fort they built together
🌅 Riley enjoying some well-earned decompression on a calm evening stroll
🎥 A special moment for Bandit, gifted a memory box and a heartfelt message:

“Although I know we haven’t had loads of sessions, I really do feel so much calmer from having PAWS therapy.”
😌 Balto doing what he does best—radiating chilled-out energy
🎪 Setting up at the Bell Farm Alternative Provision Fair
🐕 Bella showing off her awesome skills and tricks
🎨 Rudy receiving a lovingly coloured-in picture from one of her YP, who couldn’t wait to gift it to her

You’ve all made a difference—through connection, compassion, and creativity. We’re endlessly proud to have you in the PAWS community. 💫

Wishing you and your canine co-workers a restful and joyful summer break. You’ve earned it. 🐾💚

☀️🐾 HOT WEATHER REMINDER 🐾☀️

Check out this brilliant temperature chart one of our YP created to show just how dangerous the heat can be for our dogs ❤️

At PAWS, we take every precaution in hot weather – cool mats, extra water, shady spots, and in Rudy’s case, even taking a couple of days off work this week!

Please look out for your dogs (and your young people) in this heat. It’s not easy – so stay cool, stay calm, and work from a place of extra kindness and empathy 💛

“It’s like I’m starting to see the old him again… more and more I get glimpses of him because of the difference they’ve made.”

Moments like this are why we do what we do. Therapy dog Bandit has been helping a young person reconnect with joy, confidence, and a sense of self—and this is the power of the work your support makes possible 💙

We’ve got 2 weeks left of our Bridging the Gap Fundraiser and we’re nearly a quarter of the way there! We know times are tough, but if you’re able to give anything at all, it genuinely helps us keep making a difference.

Oh—and it was Bandit’s 4th birthday this week!

“He struggles so much every day—sometimes he can’t even get off the sofa, buried under the weight of his anxiety. But in the hour he spends with Kat and Barney, something shifts. There’s light in his eyes again. It gives me goosebumps—it’s transformative.”

Barney doesn’t just walk through fields—he walks beside young people who feel invisible, anxious, or lost. With Kat by his side, he’s bridging the gap where other systems fall short.

Help us bring the healing power of animal-assisted interventions to more young people who desperately need it.
