Service and Mobility Dog for Avery

Our little Avery Claire was born with a blood clot in the 4th ventricle of her brain, caused by a vascular disease called Hereditary Hemmoragic Telangiectasia, or HHT.  After several surgeries, a VP shunt was placed to assist her in draining the fluid off of her brain.  Avery has been attending at least 6 hours a week of physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy for the past 3 years.  She is such a determined little girl and because of that she has started talking!  She currently uses a gait trainer to assist her with walking, but at times it is difficult to use depending on where we are or what we are doing.  She has the need to be independant but it is so hard for her.  We just know that the service and mobility dog will open up SO many new doors for her in her will to walk.  Please help us raise this money to go towards a mobility dog and to help our little Avery become independant.
