Therapy Dog Needed in MA for Epilepsy Girl
 
Hi all,

I am a dog walker/pet sitter on Cape Cod, MA. I have my own CAP Therapy Dog and often help others find their own therapy dog depending upon their specified needs. Can anyone help me find a reputable organization in MA area that would be able to help a 9 year old girl with epilepsy find a dog? They already have the money, its just finding the right outfit. Any info ASAP would be most appreciated. Thank you all so much!

Best,
Maria Silva

Hi there Maria:

Here's some great information. I actually spoke to a representative at the CanineAssistants.org. She told me to tell you to have the family call them and they will tell them what is necessary to place a dog for them. They place dogs ALL OVER THE NATION. She also gave me the name of another website for service dogs.


So at least you have a start.

Best of luck

Here are the two websites:

http://www.canineassistants.org/


And the second website is:

When you click on this link, go to the left and click on Service Dogs

Hope I helped.

Hello, and welcome to NT!

You might also suggest:

www.ADIOnline.org That is Assistance Dogs International. They have lists of service/therapy dog organizations by state.

Best of luck.
