Okay
I didn´t know about psychiatric service dogs. It look like therapy to me... it´s similar example as dophin therapy. I will read more about psychiatric service dogs and then be back for post later.
Here, we have pets to help people who suffers depression, low self-esteem, etc., not apply service dogs to help... I have cats as pet who make me feel good.
NHM Question of the Week: Pets
That´s why I disagree with Katin´s link to apply service dogs to boost people´s self-esteem because the pets can do that. It´s Care service or therapies who helps severe disabled people who have severe problems to positive their self-esteem, etc. I have seen many disabled people who have good self-esteem without service dogs but pets.
