Reduce Your Stress with Therapy Dog Activities

PAWS Your Stress Therapy Dog Program

The PAWS Your Stress program is offered by a caring team of students, researchers, professionals, and most important, volunteer therapy dogs and handlers!  


The program was founded in 2015 by the Office of the Centennial Enhancement Chair in One Health and Wellness at the University of Saskatchewan. It is offered today in partnership with Peer Health and the St. John Ambulance Therapy Dog program.   


Therapy Dogs at Saskatoon Vaccination Clinics!

Our Therapy Dogs have been safely visiting vaccination clinics in Saskatoon to offer comfort and support to the people attending, as well as friendly visits with staff.


St. John Ambulance Therapy Dogs are resuming visits at the Saskatoon vaccination clinics planned for October 2023.  Visit the SK Health Authority website for details.
