Working in the public sector since 2001, Mr. Amaro has seen different aspects of mental health injuries and illnesses and how they affect a person's ability to cope with the most basic tasks at times.

In founding Searchlight Service Dogs, Mr. Amaro strives to make a positive impact in the lives of those suffering from such conditions by ensuring the quality of the services delivered by Searchlight Service Dogs is second to none.

Ms. Laine has experience in working professionally with dogs since 1997, as well as a passion for the natural bond between humans and dogs.

She has been accredited by the Ontario Court of Justice as an expert in dog training, canine behaviour and training, identification of aggressive dogs, traits of dogs: confidence, threatening and territorial behaviour.

She is dedicated to helping those who suffer from mental health, experience a new way of life through the use of Service Dogs.
