Despite the balance & coordination issues, dizziness, extreme fatigue, pain, depression and anxiety I trained my dog to be my service dog. He is a rescue dog ...Australian cattle. He knows when I need to rest. He knows when I am having blackouts, dizzy spells, haven't taken my high blood pressure pills etc. He knows when I am in so much discomfort that I don't want to walk. He is my life saver. We have been together 11 years. I am now attempting to train a Japanese chin as my next service dog. Despite what people say he is keeping me mobile. He nudges me and gets in my face. When I need rest he comes to me gives me that look, puts his paw on me then motions me to follow him to the bedroom. When I needs to take my high blood pressure pills he walks me to the kitchen and looks at the cabinet. I could keep talking about all the things Sam does for me. Dogs are smarter than some people give them credit for.

Between this trainer's brilliant & frequent sessions, and my dog's stunning intelligence and her eagerness to learn, in 3 weeks she has learned about my MS and accompanying fatigue & balance issues, as well as reinforcing all the basic and many more complex commands. And she is/will be completely attuned to me.
