About Pawsitive Perspectives Assistance Dogs (PawPADs)

New Market, Lakeville, MN 55044, US

Mission Statement

We facilitate the power of the human-canine bond, and enhance the lives of others, through the process of training service dogs and the outcome of placing them with people with disabilities.

Description

Pawsitive Perspective's innovative programs were designed to create powerful, life-enhancing experiences through working, and being partnered, with assistance dogs. We place service dogs with wounded warriors, individuals with physical disabilities, diabetic alert dogs, autism service dogs and facility/school resource dogs.

PawPADs utilizes the process of training the dogs as a therapeutic and educational experience through programs such as Project YES! (youth at risk), Prison Road Puppies (inmates) and Paw Corps (veterans).
