Sad-Dog Mental Health Awareness training

Thank you Trivallis we really appreciated the opportunity to work with you.

This is why we love teaching mental health awareness. ❤️

Recently, Sad-Dog delivered Mental Health Awareness training to 40 incredible staff members at a housing association call centre.

Shortly after the session, one of the team members who took part in our training handled a call from a tenant who was in a very low place.

What followed was a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

A family member of the tenant reached out and shared this message after the call:

“Hello, I am not sure if this is the right department I am contacting, but yesterday my father called in to cancel an appointment in August.

Someone called ###xx was very kind and patient with him and also took the time and courtesy to call him back and gave him the number for a mental health team that my father could contact to get the help he needed.

My dad hates talking over the phone, and ###x took his personal time to find a suitable advocate to cater to my father’s needs.

Thanks to this superhuman, my father contacted the team and was able to prevent the situation from getting worse.

I only wish there were more people like ###x in this world— all I can say is thank you.

My father was on the verge of taking his own life, and to be honest, I think ###x may have truly saved his life and spared his children from suffering a loss”

This kind of feedback shows how vital it is to equip frontline staff with the tools, empathy, and confidence to support those in crisis. We're so proud of the team — and grateful to be part of their journey.

🐾 About Us – Sad-Dog Mental Health Awareness 🧠💙
�Real talk. Real support. Real-life mental health.
At Sad-Dog Mental Health Awareness, we believe mental health support should be real, relatable, and rooted in lived experience—not buzzwords or checklists.
Our journey began with Presley, a gentle dog who became the original Sad-Dog our mascot and emotional anchor. When Presley tragically died in a house fire in 2016, it marked the start of a personal mental health struggle that shaped everything we now stand for.
From that loss came purpose. Today, Sad-Dog is a platform for mental health education that’s raw, human, and practical built to meet people exactly where they are.

🫶 If you're looking for something different—something human, not corporate—we’d love to work with you.
