Betty is always on the go! When she’s not out on therapy visits sharing joy and brightening someone’s day, you’ll likely find her in agility classes, showing off her speed, focus, and enthusiasm. She loves heading out on adventures with her owner, Mikayla, but she’s just as happy curled up on the couch for a cozy snuggle. Betty is known for her signature rainbow tail, which perfectly matches her vibrant personality—and she’s proudly earned her Advanced Trick title.

You can find Vinny visiting frequently at the Brandon General Hospital, children’s day camps, and participating in community events. When Vinny isn’t working, he enjoys playing with his toys at home, snoozing under a cozy blanket on the couch, or eagerly begging to accompany Emmy to her hair salon job (he lives for salon gossip). Although Vinny may be small, he certainly brings mighty smiles to everyone he meets.

In January 2024, Duke was found roaming the streets of Winnipeg all by himself.

In May 2024, we came across a video of Duke online and decided to adopt him. After months of exercise and training, Duke was ready to join the PATDogs team as a certified therapy dog.
