Our Partners
Our generous partners ensure that NSD can continue to train the highest quality Service Dogs to provide at no cost to our clients.
Since 2012, Wounded Warriors Canada (WWC) has made significant investments, as a leading funder of PTSD Service Dogs. The preliminary results of the Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) funded efficacy study has reinforced and provided early clinical evidence which we know to be imperially true: Properly trained PTSD Service Dogs can and do change and save lives. #inthistogether

For almost 20 years the Kiwanis Club has been supporting children and families living with autism through NSD’s Autism Service Dog Program. Their annual Celebrity Clown Event is tied to the Brampton Santa Claus Parade and each year NSD staff and graduates join in the fun and dress up as clowns and walk the parade – bringing joy to hundreds of children each holiday season.
We have witnessed firsthand this profound connection between humans and animals – this was the inspiration behind The RAWZ Fund. We wanted to assist individuals and families who are affected by injury and/or disability. We do this through The RAWZ Fund by donating 100% of RAWZ Natural Pet Food’s profits to organizations that are dedicated to improving the lives of those living with disability – through the countless benefits of life with a service dog.
