There’s nothing quite like a Safekeeping reunion. 🥹🐾❤️

Earlier this month, Odysseus entered our Emergency Safekeeping Program following an urgent call from the Calgary Police Service after his owner was unexpectedly hospitalized.

Today, he got to go home. ❤️

Moments like this are exactly why our Safekeeping Program exists. When someone is facing an emergency, knowing their pet is safe, loved and cared for can mean everything. And when the time comes, there’s no better feeling than watching a family become whole again.

Since funding for our Safekeeping Program was cut earlier this year, our ability to respond has become extremely limited, but the calls haven’t stopped. We continue to hear from people every day facing hospitalization, crisis and other emergencies who are desperately trying to keep their pets safe.

Our Safekeeping Program now relies entirely on donations from our community. Every contribution helps us continue to be there when we can, and helps make reunions like this one possible.

We also want to give a huge thank you to Chasin’ Tails Chasin' Tails Dog Care Centre for being such incredible supporters of Parachutes for Pets and for continuing to step up and assist our Safekeeping Program. We are so grateful to have partners who believe in keeping people and their pets together. ❤️

Happy International Dog Day. 🐾

To the dogs we’ve helped.
To the dogs who have helped us.

To the dogs who arrived scared, hungry, sick, or unsure of what was happening, but still found it in themselves to trust.

To the dogs who waited safely with us while their person went to treatment, escaped violence, entered the hospital, found housing, or simply tried to put their life back together.

To the dogs who were the reason someone kept going.

The reason someone got out of bed.
The reason someone came home.
The reason someone asked for help.

To the dogs who have sat quietly beside a child who couldn't find the words. Who have rested their head on the lap of a senior who felt forgotten.

Who have walked into our Paws for Mental Health programs and somehow known exactly who in the room needed them most.

To the dogs whose names we will never forget.

And to the dogs we haven't met yet. The ones who will someday come through our doors attached to a person who loves them more than anything and just needs someone to say, “We’ll help you both.”

You are why we believe so deeply in protecting the human–animal bond.

Because sometimes a dog isn't just part of someone's life.

Sometimes, they are the reason that life keeps going.

Happy International Dog Day to every dog who has left paw prints on our floors, our programs, our community, and our hearts. ❤️🐾

We have loved knowing you. We are honoured to help protect you. And we can't wait to meet the dogs still to come.

On October 2, Edmonton is coming together for a night where good taste meets an even better cause. ✨

Join Parachutes for Pets at Bar Trove for the No Empty Bowls Soirée—an intimate, elevated evening in support of pets and the people who love them.

Requests to our Pet Food Bank are up 21% this year. Behind every request is a person trying to hold onto an important member of their family. No one should have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pet—and no bowl should be left empty because times got hard.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 2026
7:00 PM–12:00 AM
Bar Trove | 10126 100 Street NW, Edmonton
Formal Attire

🥂 Welcome champagne & delicious bites
✨ Live entertainment
🤍 Silent auction
🥂 Interactive activations & curated experiences
🐾 Special appearance by PFP Ambassador Lenny McDavid
📸 Opportunity for an exclusive photo and "pawtograph" with Lenny
✨ And a few surprises we're keeping to ourselves...

This isn't your typical fundraiser.

It's a beautiful night out. A reason to dress up. A chance to gather with some incredible people—and an opportunity to make sure pets across our community have full bowls and families can stay together.

Come for the experience. Leave knowing your night meant something.

Space is intentionally limited. Reserve your tickets now through the link in bio or on our website. 🥂🐾

At 1 AM this morning, our Wolf Pack Emergency Response was activated to support our friends in B.C. impacted by the wildfires.

We’ve already sent 100 Emergency Pet Packs, and an incredible team of volunteers is on the way with a 26-foot U-Haul packed with pet food, crates, and critical supplies.

But we’re not done. More support will be heading out as we continue responding to the needs of pets and their people.

Want to help? Donate directly to our wildfire response efforts at the link below or via the link in bio.

Bentley’s mom misses him every single day. But right now, loving him means making sure he is safe. 💔

Bentley is in our Safekeeping Program while his mom navigates an incredibly difficult time in her life.

She visits him every morning.

Being apart is hard, but she can rest a little easier knowing Bentley is safe, loved, fed and cared for while she works toward the day she can bring him home.

Because Safekeeping isn’t about giving up a pet. It’s about making sure a temporary crisis doesn’t become a permanent goodbye.

Since funding for our Safekeeping Program was cut, we have watched the need for this program increase at an overwhelming rate. Every day, we hear from people facing impossible circumstances who are desperately trying to keep the pets they love. The hardest part is knowing that right now, we simply can’t help everyone who needs us.

But today, we can be here for Bentley. And with your help, we hope to be there for more families tomorrow.

Because mental wellness shouldn't depend on your postal code. 💚

Today our Paws for Mental Health Mobile Program had the privilege of visiting seniors in the wonderful community of Warburg.

For many people living in smaller or rural communities, access to animal-assisted wellness programming simply doesn't exist. Through our mobile program, we're bringing trained wellness pets, meaningful connections, conversation, mindfulness activities, and moments of joy directly to those who need them most.

The smiles, stories, laughter, and quiet moments of connection we witnessed today are a reminder that sometimes the most powerful form of support is simply showing up.

Every community deserves access to programs that reduce isolation, improve mental wellbeing, and strengthen the human-animal bond, no matter where they live.

💚 Want to help us reach more communities like Warburg? We're currently seeking sponsors to help expand our Mobile Paws for Mental Health Program across Alberta. Your support helps us remove barriers and bring these life-changing visits to seniors, youth, and underserved communities where services are limited.

📩 If your business or organization would like to sponsor a visit or help us reach more rural communities, we'd love to hear from you. You can email us at [email protected]

🐾 Want to make a difference as an individual? Every donation helps us bring Paws for Mental Health to more communities across Alberta. You can support the program here:
