Paws For Support

Dogs Empowering People

Paws For Support is a unique charity dedicated to using highly trained dogs to improve people’s lives in the bailiwick of Guernsey. 

These dogs will be used in a wide variety of situations from schools and young people, to visiting the elderly in care homes.  The dogs help bring happiness to people’s lives, assist in teaching respect, kindness, love, responsibility, friendship and trust.  This is achieved by using our Paws for Support dogs as educational and therapeutic aids and assistance.
