Buddy, my best friend!!

December 16, 2021

Buddy giving me some kisses here showing me how much he loves and cares about me. What a perfect dog he’s been for me. He picks up on things so fast, training has been very easy so far. I have no doubt he will fulfill and carry out the psychiatric tasks were working on by calming me down during a panic attack and lessening my overall anxiety issues. I also have seizures without any warning. Perhaps further down the road with his trading, we will be able to determine if he can help with getting me to a safe place if he can pick up on various things prior to when a seizure occurs.
It’s incredible how fast he learns and things he has picked up on already. You don’t need a pure bred dog as a service animal. Adopted dogs can serve the same needs for some people and I’m proof of that. There are plenty of dogs out there that are just waiting to be adopted and given the chance to have a forever home instead on sleeping on hard cement and living in a crate all the time.
Instead of me choosing Buddy, I firmly believe he chose me instead. We make a great team and I feel very fortunate to have him. He’s my best friend and so generous with his hugs and kisses!!
