Hello everyone! I want to update you on the progress of getting my service dog. As of right now, I have raised $1,480 toward my service dog and its training expenses. These funds have allowed me to pay for the puppy as well as a crate, food, and the initial vet exam once the puppy gets to Ohio. I will be flying out on May 3rd, (Next Tuesday), to bring the puppy back and begin training. I am still trying to raise the last of the funding needed to cover training cost and transportation to Wagmor Service Dogs. They will be providing task training for the puppy. I am asking you today to help me spread the word and raise funds for my cause. We are so close to beginning the next step in our journey and hope that this message reaches someone that can help us on our way. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for all of your help!

(2,256 posts)Specializes in breeding low uric acid, well tempered dogs. There are several working dogs that have been produced from this bloodline. I knew I wanted a dal due to personal reasons. So I went looking for a breeder who could help. I found a service dog training academy in Ohio that was willing to train an outside dog. The academy and the breeder worked together and chose the dog for me after temperament testing was completed. I hope this answers your questions. I try to be as transparent as possible especially since this involves other people's money.

(2,256 posts)The amount left is $800 for Wagmor Service Dogs and whatever is over that would be for gas/transportation to the training center. Thanks for asking.
