Lillie is a young girl with social anxiety, autism and depression. In January Lillie started her journey with a gorgeous golden retriever named Brian. Lillie says: “He helped me fall asleep last night when I was having intrusive thoughts/images in my head that
triggered me. And today when a few things didn't go as planned, he helped me through it”. Brian is trained to interrupt harmful activities and provide deep pressure when Lillie is overstimulated. Because of Brian Lillie is able to live the life she was meant to live.
In her own words: “Because of him, I felt safe and more at ease. I didn’t have to go home early like so many days before… And I am even excited to go to classes.”
Brian’s training has cost $20 000, here’s where YOU can make a difference.
There are more stories like Lillie, people who are waiting for their chance to get their Superhero Service Dog. We currently know that
the Region is struggling with a mental health epidemic and YOU can make a tangible difference.
PAW-TEMBER is an annual fundraiser for Partners with Paws! It’s Mental Health Awareness Month, September 10th is World SuicidePrevention Day, so we’re renaming September PAW-TEMBER!
