My fear is spending thousands of dollars and the dog can't be a service dog I don't know if I could rehome them and try again. I get attached. If it wasn't for mobility I would get a medium size dog. But I won't know about mobility until they're two years old. So $7,200+ dollars in training plus the adoption fee before knowing if it can be trained for mobility Service dog. We'll see my dad keeps saying don't worry about the money just get what I need. Which is nice but not realistic I need to save for the dog, vet, training. There is no way I could take on a SDiT and my esa dog. I have to wait until July to talk to my pdoc but I did write down in my list of **** I was feeling to my T. So next week we'll probably talk about it.

Sounds like your dad is willing to pay for the dogs training and purchasing the dog for you.
Unless there will be strings attached.....
Do what feels right for you and your comfort level.
This is a good thing to talk to your T about.
by the way. You are talking with your T this is good news.
sorry if I have missed this. Are you going to tell her
you have been smoking weed and not taking your meds?
sorry this sounds judgemental. I wish it were legal here only
medical MMJ here is legal.
keeping fingers crossed that you can get your new puppy.
What kind of dog do you have now?
