Our PAWS Therapy Dogs program is central to our mission of supporting the community. More than 80 volunteers and their dogs spend time at nursing homes, psychiatric hospitals, hospices and children’s homes to help bring joy and encouragement to the disabled, bedridden or neglected.
Our therapy dog teams conduct monthly visits to more than 30 facilities throughout Orange County, California. Averaging more than 600 visits annually, our PAWS Therapy Dog program helps strengthen the human-animal bond by sharing the love of a pet with those that cannot have their own. These visits provide a unique and wholesome social opportunity for seniors, children, and the community at large.
