Paws for Patrick

Emotional support animal (esa) program - our goal is to help alleviate the burden of those trying to acquire an esa for mental health purposes through our unique wish granter program. Whether it be obtaining an esa certification letter; finding a new companion and paying for adoptions fees; securing and paying for a trainer that works for each person; coordinating approval for housing for dorms & apartments with "no pets allowed" rules, each client is handled on a case-by-case basis with their individual wish granter. We are committed to helping you from beginning to end. As a part of this program, we also provide opportunities for young people to interact with our trained therapy dogs and their handlers in group and individual settings such as schools, therapy sessions, youth organizations, and more. We believe in animal power; the unbreakable bond between people and their pets. We believe in the positive emotional health impact animals can have on an individual. And, we believe that it is imperative that we raise awareness to the rising and alarming rate of young people struggling with mental health.
