Evening,
Does anyone have an assistance dog for their autistic teen? I really think my DD would benefit from them but they are mega bucks and even if we could afford it, all waiting lists seem to be closed (no local ones near me).
Just wondering what people's experiences are if they have one or know of someone who does and/or where they sourced one.
Debating whether to rescue if not and possibly train or just have a rescue dog that is lovely for my duaghter but not an assistance dog if that makes sense. I have had dogs before even though this post may not sound like I have.
Thanks
