The doctor suggested we get my DD a puppy as a companion/service dog. There are orgainzations that will donate a trained puppy/dog to you as a service dog if you have siezures, blind and a lot of other medical conditions however TBI is not one of them. Seems unfair but everything lately has been unfair when it comes to DD.
My questions is what kind of a dog should we get???????? My house is tiny,tiny she wants a lad. I say they are too big yet what I have read they are great service dogs. I have also read that people with TBI usually have a small dog like a poodle or maltapoo. I am so confused, then there is also the money issue not only of the cost of the dog/vet which I don't know how I am going to afford it but if it is big dog the cost of the food. Does anyone have a service dog if so what kind????? And what do they do for you? I hope I am not getting to personal, you could PM me if that would be more comfortable.
Any suggestions on what breed of dog would be great help. :-D
Thanks
