Let us bring joy and  healing to you.

At Wellbeing Dogs Cairns, our goal is to share our sweet, loved dogs with you to achieve an outcome of happiness, to help reduce levels of stress and to assist with individuals' day to day living.

The American Veterinary Medical Association (AMVA) acknowledges that the human-animal bond has existed for thousands of years and defines it as “a mutually beneficial and dynamic relationship between people and animals that is influenced by behaviours that are essential to the health and well-being of both. This includes, but is not limited to, emotional, psychological, and physical interactions of people, animals, and the environment” (2014).
