My wife,even though we have our issues, I stay breathing because...

    Service dog rollercoaster

    Well it sounds like I have a very good lead on a dog named cookie. She's a coonhound lab mix. she's still a bit of a puppy though. She's only about 8 months old. I think she is pretty and they say at the shelter she is laid back and relaxed. I am not sure if I would stick with the name cookie...

    Service dog rollercoaster

    This is an exhaustive search. I have spent every day since Friday on the internet looking for a dog. I have applied for adoption of one. But I am afraid of getting stuck with having the shelter come to my house. Apparently a lot of places around here require a home visit. My fear is that since...

    Service dog rollercoaster

    Yes you can train an existing dog but be careful if you plan on taking the dog into public. These dogs need a certain temperament. They basically have to be in control of themselves at all times. Meaning they can't bark, run, sniff, growl, bite, eliminate on sidewalks or in stores. They also...

    Service dog rollercoaster

    Amethist, Remind him that many dogs get along great with cats or just ignore them completely. Yes your cat may not like the new addition but you do have to remember that a service dog would be beyond a huge benefit for your husband. See I have also come down with a bit of agoraphobia and it's...

    Fund Raiser Disaster

    Anthony the fund raiser was a halloween dance to try and raise money for me to get a Psychiatric service dog. As far as I can tell there were no other events in the area. The haunted house was already closed the weekend before and there wasn't any thing else going on in the 5 cities I put my...

    Fund Raiser Disaster

    I have no idea what went wrong. The only thing I can think of was because it was a Sunday night. Although my daughter and my mother went into the bar area to get some Pepsi with my daughter wearing her Pooh bear costume and got a few people out of the bar to come see what was going on. Spent...

    I Need Some Advice

    I am not sure because they both require at least a partial payment up front for the dog and training. With limited income it's kinda hard to do that.

    I Need Some Advice

    I have sent e-mails and called wags about 15 times in the last year and have never received a message back. I have been researching this for over a year now and even purchased a dog that is sitting next to me for training. He turned out not to be a good candidate for service dog work because of...
