Our Mission:
Empowering Nova Scotians with disabilities, Wellness Wags Assistance Dogs is dedicated to fostering independence, cultivating confidence, and enhancing overall well-being through the transformative companionship and essential assistance of highly trained service dogs. Through the placement of our program-raised dogs or owner-trained programs, we enable individuals to regain autonomy, strengthen their sense of purpose, reintegrate themselves into society, and elevate their quality of life. At Wellness Wags, we imagine a world where each wagging tail represents a thriving and genuine human-canine connection. We achieve this by providing comprehensive client education and prioritizing fear-free, positive reinforcement training methods, ensuring a relationship that benefits both ends of the leash. Committed to the highest standards, our aspiration is to become an accredited member of Assistance Dogs International, further solidifying our commitment to excellence and ethical practices. This goal is ambitious and can only be reached through the accomplishment of milestones, including placing and maintaining numerous successful teams and accumulating years of operation. We will always be dedicated to working towards this goal with pride.
