Pawsitive Perspectives Assistance Dogs (PawPADs) is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization headquartered in Savage, Minnesota that provides highly trained assistance dogs to persons with disabilities. We accomplish this through educational and vocational training programs which teach students, veterans, and others to train the assistance dogs.

PawPADs' Vision: To enrich the lives of people with disabilities by providing them with exceptionally skilled assistance dogs; enabling them to lead more independent, self-reliant, and fulfilling lives. Our innovative training 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.


"Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will." Mahatma Gandhi
