Congratulations to ADS Nell for completing her journey to becoming an ADS Service Dog!

ADS Nell plays an important role in providing much needed love, safety, and a calming presence to her partner Addison.

Nell is preparing to take over the reins from ADS Baxter as he prepares for retirement. A big thank you to ADS Baxter for his years of service to both Addison and her brother, Nate.

Nell has seamlessly settled in with Addison and her home and routines, and is working well in a variety of settings.

Thank you to Nell's village who helped to guide her towards this amazing role!

Lately, ADS puppy raisers (sincere thanks) and staff have been incredibly busy presenting at and bringing tremendous joy to high school and university students. These opportunities offer phenomenal training opps for all ages and stages of dogs.

If your company or organization would like a visit with the pups reach out to [email protected] and for a donation to our charity we will see what we can do! No guarantees depending on our availability. Puppy raisers let Janine know of your availability to join in!

ADS Fundraising Committee Member Elaine Hu is a Biology specialization student at Western University, currently completing a 16 month internship in quality assurance at McCormick. She first discovered ADS at Western’s volunteer fair, and as a longtime dog lover, she was immediately drawn to the organization’s mission and community work.

Elaine has enjoyed volunteering at ADS events, and one of her favorite memories was dressing up as the Easter Bunny mascot, seeing children run up to her for hugs and greet her with big smiles made the experience especially meaningful. She loves being part of events that bring people together with purpose and positivity, and she looks forward to continuing her involvement with ADS in the future.

ADS thanks you Elaine for your efforts, commitment and support!
