Help Nick Get A Therapy/Service Dog
Donation protected
This is my little guy Nick, he is almost 3 years old with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Senory Proccessing Disorder and Apraxia. He is currently in therapy 5 days a week trying to help him with his speech, walking skills and fine and gross motor skills. Nick loves to play and act like a normal almost three year old he just has problems being out in public with groups of people and loud noises. During these times he will hide and not do anything. He also needs a lot of deep pressure and joint compression to get through his break downs.
This is where a therapy/service dog is coming into play as he is getting older and going to be entering a school system he will be having times when his father and I will not be able to help through the break downs. The dog will be specially trained to help calm him and give him the pressure and security he will need to be redirected and also to warn us if he is going out of sight as he can be a runner. The dog will also hopefully be able to help him keep his balance and keep him from running into things. This specialized training does come with a hefty bill which we can not afford on our own.
It is very difficult for us to ask for help but if have it in your heart please help Nick get a therapy/service dog he so desperately needs to help him
