We wouldn’t be able to provide pet therapy to the community without the help of trained professionals like Dave Tomey, Aviva Shtull, and team from Tomey K9 Services & Baby Dog Canada.

Dave (pictured) and the team help us by providing behavioural assessments to every dog that is interested in joining PATS.

Thank you Dave & Aviva of TomeyK9/BabyDog for ensuring we can continue to provide the best of the best dogs for pet therapy! 🐾

Don’t be scared, but it looks like one of our PATS dogs metamorphosed into a beautiful butterfly! This time of year you never know what kind of cute, spooky, or silly creatures will show up masquerading as a PATS Pet. 🦋

Are you a PATS volunteer with a cute, spooky, or silly PATS Pet? Please send us your photos of your pet in costume and we will feature it on our social media. 👻
