Co‑Adventurer. Morale Booster.Friend

He’s chewed a passport, a set of driving documents, five rugs, three shoes, and one jacket. He’s also redesigned the garden with absolutely no planning permission.

And somehow, Pablo has become central to Peak Explore.

He connects with young people in ways I can’t. No judgment. No pressure. Just presence, patience, and a tail that quietly says, “you’re safe here.”

Like many of the young people we work with, he thrives outdoors. That’s where he’s calm, confident, and fully himself and that’s where the magic tends to happen.

Pablo isn’t a therapy dog. He’s a companion on the journey: grounding, joyful, and endlessly curious. He supports children and young people in his own unique way, simply by showing up as who he is.

And honestly, that’s more than enough.
