At PALS, we love visiting the Carewest Dr. Vernon Fanning Centre 💙 and we’re grateful for the opportunity to help make a difference there.

Our certified pet therapy teams bring comfort, connection, and joy to residents. Whether it’s a gentle cuddle, a shared story, or a quiet moment together, these visits are all about enhancing well-being and creating meaningful human-animal connections.

Carewest provides a wide range of programs and services to support our community — from long-term care and rehabilitation to programs that help adults stay independent and connected.

It’s inspiring to see how much they do to provide quality care, recovery support, and community connection. We’re proud to partner with Carewest Dr. Vernon Fanning Centre, along with many other incredible organizations, to make a positive impact right here in Calgary. ✨

🌭 PALS has been chosen as the charity of choice for the very first Dog Days Festival YYC 💙

From May 23 to June 6, Calgary will be celebrating all things hot dogs (the food 🌭… but honestly probably the dogs too 🐶). If you’re a hot dog lover, this festival is basically your dream come true.

We’re so excited to be part of Calgary’s first-ever hot dog festival, with proceeds helping support PALS Pet Therapy programs across Calgary.
You can support your PALS, simply by eating a hot dog.😉🐾

📍 Cold Garden Brewery @cold_garden
🗓 May 23
⏰ 11 AM – 3 PM

PALS will be there, so come say hi! And yes… wiener dog costumes are highly encouraged 😊

🐶 Just a heads up: Cold Garden is pup-friendly, so there will be other dogs in attendance (not just your PALS.)

Check out participating vendors and festival details on the Dog Days Insta 🌭 @dogdaysyyc

📚🐾 Story PALS in action 💙

In our Story PALS program, children build confidence and reading skills by reading aloud to our therapy animals in a calm, non-judgmental space 🐶✨

And as this carousel shows… sometimes even our PALS volunteers can’t resist the comfort of a good story 😴💤

Because honestly—who doesn’t get a little sleepy when someone reads to you? Even PALS need a nap during story time 🐾💙

These moments are part of a larger literacy and animal-assisted therapy program in Calgary, helping kids feel more confident, relaxed, and supported as they grow their reading skills 📖

It's time to meet a PAL. Say hi to Sir Leonard 👋 This gentle giant (who thinks he's a tiny boy) loves attention and pets. There's no job more perfect for him - story times, high fives, cuddles, lifting spirits - Sir Leonard is a man on a mission.

Here's Sir Leonard waiting for his PALS team before heading out on their mission to one of our favourite places, Foothills Hospital.

Time for a Throwback Thursday!

PALS are meant to support each other! So a few of us head down to Shelf Life Books in Calgary to support our PAL, Susan Carpenter, at the launch of her book, Bad Advice! 🐶✨

What makes this moment even more meaningful is that a portion of book sales is donated back to PALS, helping support our pet therapy programs across Calgary—from hospitals and schools to care facilities and community spaces 🐾

These programs are made possible by our incredible volunteers, community partners, followers, and everyone who's ever made a donation or even mentioned PALS in a conversation.

Thank you, Susan, Shelf Life Books and anyone reading for believing in the power of the human–animal bond. 🐾💙
