Fighting the โNormโ when training a service dog! ๐ฆฎ
Sadie is being trained to help me as a medical alert dog (stroke) and also to work with me on Neurological issues.
As I stated before I am not a trainer, we are just sharing our journey as she gets her training to help me.
There is a real stigma that a service dog is trained to help individuals with a visual and obvious impairment. ๐ถ
But, remember we have service dogs and hat help diabetics, cardiovascular patients, neurological patients, ptsd and many other conditions. You may look at the person and not be able to visually tell what that person needs but the dog knows and the dog trained to help each person individually.
