Christian is 2 years old - I believe that a service dog will be of great benefit to him in the near future. Can you please tell me the names of agencies that I need to contact in order to get things in place.

He has just recently started to bond with her and showing affection toward her. Her presence has made such a tremendous difference in our lives because she calms him and keeps him "grounded". I am ever so grateful to our Abby for being so patient, tolerant, and well behaved. I got lucky with her because she is not professionally trained. In Alaska service dogs do not have to be prof. trained so I just trained her myself and she is incredible.<BR/><BR/>Lora :)Lorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16566410028761708698noreply@blogger.com
