About us
Pawsitive Perspectives Assistance Dogs (PawPADs) is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization headquartered in Minnesota that provides highly trained assistance dogs to persons with disabilities. We accomplish this through Innovative Training Programs: educational and vocational training programs which teach inmates, students, veterans, and others to train the assistance dogs for placement. Our programs are designed to create powerful, life-enhancing experiences through working with dogs - as the very act of working with, being around and training these dogs can be therapeutic and life-altering in profound ways.
