Service dog

[Tim McDonough]

Ask any question about Bailey and I and teh bond we share. I will try to answer as honest and as open as I can.

I have always found the bond between human and dog to be both fascinating and amazing. I love dogs. I think they are totally awesome. Bailey is beautiful. I would absolutely love to have a dog, but work permits.

I have read so many stories here about how much their hounds have helped them, which is simply brilliant.

I often feel alone (but not lonely). I think a K9 companion would be ideal for me.

You are lucky to have such a strong bond with such a special hound. I'm sure that's down to a lot of hard work by you :D

What kind of Dog would you like to get CB ?

A month or so back, I met a whole load of retired greyhounds who were looking for homes - they were so lovely.

Otherwise, I think I would choose a spaniel, as we had a cocker when I was a kid. I only have a small house, so a big dog probably wouldn't suit me.

But anyway, it's only a dream for now. But love to hear others stories about their amazing dogs:D

You have a beautiful dog.

I have a little basset/beagle. She's 20 pounds. Sometimes I joke that she has doggie PTSD; she's a rescue who hates a lot of the things I hate, like crowds and people/dogs following behind her. I love her a lot.

How did you come to get a service dog, and what kind of service is she trained for? I guess, I don't know as much about service dogs as I'd like.

My doc says my allergy level is low enough to get a dog. Hubby has finally agreed.

Now what?
