It’s no secret that air travel can be stressful for many people. Hospitality PAWS is Fort Wayne International Airport’s answer to the stress that passengers may feel when beginning their trips. By partnering with Pets Assisting Well-Being and Success (PAWS), Inc. FWA will give passengers a calm and comforting travel experience. PAWS , Inc. is a fully insured and highly trained group of certified therapy dogs and handlers, connected to the Alliance of Therapy Dogs.

FWA’s Hospitality PAWS program is currently made up of nine handler/dog teams, with each dog being a different breed and possessing a unique personality. The PAWS teams currently come to the airport once a week for a two-hour shift, with more frequent visits during higher traffic seasons such as the holidays and spring break. All of the therapy dog teams are certified by the Alliance of Therapy Dogs.

• Hospitality PAWS handlers and dogs will be wearing nametags, say hi if you see a volunteer team working in the terminal!
