Team Toby’s PAWS Across Canada is two dog’s PAWsitive mission to build a kinder Canada one paw, one person at a time.
Toby is the star of several bestselling books for adults and
children, is travelling the world with his pet parent Charmaine teaching
lessons about kindness, acceptance and respect. RJ is the face of
globally renowned Freedom Flights rescuing death row dogs from shelters
and bringing them to loving forever homes in partnership with
international humane organizations. Their partnership will provide
Canadian schools with classroom programs teaching children kindness
values in a method that only the human-dog bond can communicate. These
values instill the foundation needed to create a bully-free educational
environment while Freedom Flights teach parents and communities the
importance of responsible pet parenting uniting at risk dogs with
families that have prevented the unnecessary loss of life.
Imagine a Gulfstream jet, the epitome of luxury and success uniting
the discarded dogs left for death with forever families anxiously
awaiting their landing at Edmonton airport. Dogs anxious
and barking while children excitedly await the moment when they may
extend kindness, love and acceptance of their new loved one. Jan Folk,
preeminent Edmonton entrepreneur along with the help of a local
marketing company and co-operation of pilots from Global Exec Aviation
launched Freedom Flights. To date they have rescued and placed 468
shelter dogs with loving forever homes along with the help of EHS.

Charmaine Hammond identified an opportunity to teach Canadians
kindness and respect through media attention and message taught by
Orange Dog through the Freedom Flights. If we can get people to
understand the value of life regardless of breed or age we can teach
them the greater message of being kind, respectful and accepting each
other. Charmaine realized this starts with children.

Humans, dogs, schools, workplaces and community groups will benefit
from PAWS Across Canada. Thousands of students in Edmonton area-northern
Alberta will participate in Toby’s presentations, story time with Toby,
and his kindness classroom kits. His books will remain in the schools
he presents at so future students will benefit as well. The student’s
families will also benefit from this project as Charmaine and Toby will
work with schools to provide Toby tips for families.
The project is built on a foundation of collaboration, partnership
and working together to make a difference. The dogs rescued from the
Freedom Flights will benefit, as will the families who adopt them. The
chosen animal shelter/adoption organization will also benefit from this
project in terms of marketing support and adoption fees. Because the Freedom Flights receive a great deal of media exposure,
the animal shelter/adoption organization, and the general public will
benefit as the media pours out good news stories, and, learning about
dog adoption and rescue.
