Service Dogs
Our longstanding relationships with Formaro Labradors, Missouri Puppies for Parole and North Central Correctional Facility give us the resources needed to provide a consistent work product, capable of meeting ever-growing needs. With twelve years of experience raising, training and placing service dogs in the Veteran and children's communities, we've expanded to include increasingly complex disabilities. We provide pre-placement support through children's dog handling classes and post-placement support for all of our recipients through the integration of Dog Scouts and Volkssporting. We welcome your interest!
Pet Partners

Pet Partner Training Courses, quarterly evaluations and the coordination of volunteer opportunities establish a road map for success with your therapy animal. Longstanding relationships with local colleges, universities, schools, performing art centers and hospice care facilities provides volunteers with an array of options.
Hurricane Helene Relief
Paws & Effect is leveraging its on-the-ground presence in Black Mountain, N.C., administrative know-how, and tax-deductible status as a conduit to solicit, coordinate, and redirect donations of money, feed, and other resources to large-animal owners who are struggling to recover from Hurricane Helene effects in Western North Carolina.
