SHERRIE
FACILITY DOG

Hi! My name is Sherrie Bourg-Carter and I'm a licensed psychologist who has worked with child sexual abuse victims and adult victims of violence for the past 28 years, and have authored several books on working with children in the legal system. I am thrilled to have been accepted as a client for a PAALS facility dog!
In partnership with Safe Alliance and Pat's Place Child Advocacy Center, both based in Charlotte, North Carolina, I'll work with my assigned dog at these agencies, guiding the dog to perform tasks that will provide comfort and stress relief for victims of sexual and physical assault, giving them a sense of safety and security to help them find their voices during one of the most difficult times in their lives.
I'm also a huge dog lover who has fostered special need shelter dogs for many years and am constantly amazed at their capacity to show love, compassion, and gratitude.
I am asking for donations to this cause that will go directly to PAALS to help minimally cover the costs of the training services they provide. All donations are tax deductible with a receipt provided to you by PAALS.
Thank you for whatever you can contribute!

PETER
AUTISM DOG

My name is Peter and I am 20 years old and have Autism. I live in Charlotte and am studying to become a voice actor. I have a massive passion and love for all animals, especially Dogs. A service dog will help me to be more social, more independent, and help me with stress and anxiety in everyday life. We are very grateful for the opportunity to have a special service dog!

Clients are given the option to fundraise to cover their tuition fee for team training (the 3-4 week class they take to learn how to work with their assistance dog before taking the dog home). The cost is $5,000, which is only a small part of the nearly $40,000 that it takes to raise, train and place each assistance dog. You can help by donating all or a portion of the tuition by choosing your client's name on the donation form.
