Service Dogs and Autistic Children – Pet Tip 253
Dogs help humans in so many ways. They help with companionship, with tasks that they carry out for us and sometimes they help make every day living much easier. Perhaps the best demonstration of this fact is when dogs help people with disabilities. Many of us have seen dogs helping blind people and many have heard of dogs that feel when a seizure in an epileptic person is about to occur and then protect them from injury. Dogs can also help aid autistic children and parents of autistic children in many ways as well. Recent studies suggest that the prevalence of autistic children in Canada may be 1 in 165 children or higher. Therefore, many people may well personally know of an autistic child in their extended family, or know of friends or acquaintances that have an autistic child. So how can dogs help these autistic children?
The National Service Dogs (NSD) organization in Ontario Canada, is one of the best organizations that specifically help train dogs to make the lives of autistic children better. You might be wondering how a service dog can be useful to autistic children

June loves her walks and loves to sniff things. I think she would be a detective if she were human. everyone falls in love with her and spoils her too. she is one lucky dog. I adopted her about 1 year ago and everything is still peachy. she is a great friend and is really funny when I am sad. she knows some tricks too. if you point at her she knows to sit then she will sit up and beg. Then if you say "Roo" she will say it back and sneeze. it is very funny. she has a nose problem I guess. She snores, she snorts like a pig, and when you pet her she tries to purr like a cat but it turns out like a piggy noise. she has a very big personality and is friendly to people around the house. she loves car rides and hates food with lamb in it. only chicken for this dog. oh and of coarse I should tell you...she is a punk dog too...she has a little bit of a cow lick on her head...so it looks like a mohuak. she licks a lot too. the only thing that is really bad about my half beagle half...ummm I don’t know...is that she sheds really really bad on my grandparents new dark blue carpet. vacuming is an everyday thing. but all in all she is the sweetest thing you could ever run into.
