Sawyer the Crisis Response Dog
25 Church Street P2A1Y2 Parry Sound, ON, Canada

Love it when you have your ears perked up Sawyer. Let’s see your fur babies.

I am so proud. I just got this Canine Good Neighbour Certificate in the mail even though we did the test back in February.

Glad to have you join our team Cacee.

We are lucky to have Megan as part of our team!!

Who wouldn’t like to wake up to this face!

We are doing fine, others not so well. The relapse and overdose rate has increased by 30% since March 2020. Mental health issues related to our lockdown/the pan...demic, and racism/current human rights violations are especially hard for people with depression. NAMI, The National Alliance on Mental Health has a 24-hour helpline: 800-950-6264. Could any two of my Facebook friends just copy and repost to share the helpline far and wide? We care. Just two. Any two. Say done. See more

Let’s see how many of you that have pups that like to hold tennis balls in there mouth like this.

WRITTEN BY A COP: Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or a loved one's life. In daylight hours, refresh yourself of these things ...to do in an emergency situation... This is for you, and for you to share with your wife, your children, & everyone you know. After reading these 9 crucial tips, forward them to someone you care about. It never hurts to be careful in this crazy world we live in. 1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do! 2. Learned this from a tourist guide. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse,....... DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you... Chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse. AND RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION! 3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy.. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives. 4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.)... DON'T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your HEAD and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.. If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF....... Repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF!!!! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes......BAIL OUT AND RUN!!!! It is better than having them find your body in a remote location. 5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage: A.) BE AWARE... look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor and in the back seat. B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars. C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side.. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.) 6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!) 7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; and even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!!!! Preferably in a zig -zag pattern! 8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP!!! It may get you raped or killed. (Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next VICTIM). 9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last and because it was late and she thought it was weird..She called the police. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR! The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a windrow and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, do not open the door.' He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby.. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night. 10. Water scam! If you wake up in the middle of the night to hear all your taps outside running or what you think is a burst pipe..... DO NOT GO OUT TO INVESTIGATE! These people turn on all your outside taps full blast so that you will go out to investigate and then attack. Stay alert, keep safe, and look out for your neighbors! I'd like you to forward this to all the women you know. It may save a life. I was going to send this to the ladies only but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc.... You may want to pass it onto them. Everyone should take 3 minutes to read this and SHARE. It may save your life or a loved one's life.

Take a tour of the new OPP Detachment in Parry Sound

Attention PSHS Gr. 9 and 10 Students and Families! Our email message system is not working, so we are sharing some information about your arrival tomorrow here.... We are so excited to welcome our new Gr 9s to the school and see our returning Gr 10s again! We have been busy preparing to welcome you for the 2020-2021 school year, and we can't wait to greet you tomorrow morning. Finding your class: All students must complete a self-assessment and self-screen every day before attending school (link is available at covid-19.ontario.ca). Gr. 9 and 10 students will enter the school from either the bus loop doors or the front doors. If you don't already know where your classroom is, we will have staff meeting you outside at the front doors and bus loop area to tell you where your class is, and how to get there. Please look for a teacher who has a clip board: Bus loop area- Ms. Hickey, Ms. Kitchen, Mrs. Rider, Mr. Loof, or Mrs. Weichel Front doors- Ms. Buckland, Mr. Weichel, Ms. Papalia, Mr. Gray, or Mr. Poole Hallways- many teachers will be waiting to say welcome back, and help you find the classroom! When you enter the school, you will sanitize your hands using the dispenser located at each entrance and be sure to have your mask on. Tomorrow is going to be an AMAZING day!
