I live near a county, as I'm sure you know ESL, where 2 of the nations leading sevice dog centers are located and have looked into participating them. They both cover all vet. services for you. Another one is in the next county over.

They also dismiss a dog similar to the one you are describing from the program after several illness's such as this dogs.

Amazing still, all the options this dog you are describing has; and then here we all are...
