Our Mission
Providing enriching experiences to our community, one paw at a time.
Canadian Therapy Dogs Support Services is a volunteer-based organization dedicated to enhancing the well-being of individuals through the power of the human-animal bond.
We provide certified therapy dog teams to offer comfort, connection, and companionship, promoting emotional support and mental wellness in healthcare, education, and community settings throughout Ottawa and the National Capital Region.
Our volunteers know the value of a kind, totally non-judgmental dog and enjoy sharing their time with others in the community.
