Hundreds of families in Kingston, Ont. came out for Easter long weekend fun, searching for Easter eggs and getting to know some dogs and puppies along the way.
More than 4,000 eggs were scattered around Confederation Park for the Kingston 4 Paws Service Dogs second annual Easter egg hunt.
Volunteer Tina Bailey said the work helps people who need support, including those who have mobility issues, people living with autism, and those with mental health issues and seizures. "My child, who I never imagined would be terribly independent simply because of her crippling anxiety, with [Star's] help, went off to college, finished an advanced diploma, got her driver's licence, is now teaching. Couldn’t ask for a better outcome.""As a parent, I wasn’t sure we’d make it past the teen years. She saved my daughter's life," explains James. "She’s never not working but when she takes the off, she’s a member of the family.
The event was also a chance for the public to get to know the young puppies, who will one day be paired with a family of their own.
