| Service Dogs for autisim and ADHD! Check out this web site! http://4pawsforability.org/ It is an organization designed to help kids with different disorders by the use of service dogs! So cool! The best part is, is that they use dogs from shelters and dogs that people don't want! How cool is that! I bet yorkies would be great service dogs! Way to go 4 Paws! |

I can see how it could help a lot of Children and Adults alike. Not sure about a Yorkie tho for a small Child. | |

| I think these dogs are great. Was thinking about these when i had a stupid marriage family counselor who never seen my oldest son or talked to him tell me he was ADHD or ADD and needed medication (stupid but there is a thread I started on that) But one of my first thoughts was a therapy dog or a service dog... These are awesome.. HAving been to the Phx Children's hospital many times for my little guy They have service/therapy dogs there and the smiles on the children's faces and the joy they bring is just remarkable.. I love ppl that have the time and the money to do something so thoughtful like this.. |
