Vader was more than a beloved companion — he was a true pioneer in the world of Ibogaine therapy. Born on August 19, 2009, and passing on February 5, 2021, Vader spent his life alongside those seeking freedom from addiction and the courage to heal, offering unconditional love and support to every soul he encountered.

Based in Vancouver, Canada, Vader became known as the “Ibogaine therapy dog extraordinaire,” accompanying participants through some of their most vulnerable moments. His calm presence, intuitive nature, and gentle companionship brought comfort and reassurance to countless individuals walking the path of recovery.

Though he is no longer physically here, Vader’s spirit remains an enduring part of the healing circle. His legacy lives on in the lives he touched, the hope he inspired, and the unconditional love he so freely gave.

At Inner Realms Center, Vader is remembered with gratitude and affection — a reminder that healing can come in many forms, sometimes on four paws and with a heart full of love.
