Research reveals that dogs offer therapeutic benefits like social connection, stress relief, and mood enhancement, which is why Paws & Think partners with various community institutions to make a positive impact.
We’re thrilled to announce that Paws & Think has been awarded a generous $10,000 grant from the Efroymson Family Fund through the Central Indiana Community Foundation!
“Kids and dogs working together — it’s a great combination of energy and enthusiasm, leading to positive results for members of both species. That’s the goal of the youth-canine program, led by nonprofit Paws & Think.”
A special kind of pet is getting in on Pride Month. Therapy animals are offering support for unhoused LGBTQ+ youth in a local transitional living program. Representatives say we all need to feel love and acceptance, and the pets have that mastered.
