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. |
Liebling hon I'm very much aware what some pets can do for us, and how they can help people's health issue, but this thread is not about pets, we are talking about service dogs, I'm trying to help you understand what many service dogs do to assist people that needs help. you may disagree as long as you please but cannot say these people don't need one.
For myself I don't need a service dog, but if others want one, that's up to them. Katin is only giving a suggestion as "
maybe a service dog will help", that's all she was doing, I just wish you will see where she is coming from on this too.
