Question
Hello Em,
I have Multiple Sclerosis. I am 53 years old and no longer able to work on a job I loved. I hit my fifties and never missed a step; then MS happened. I am interested in training a service dog. I have a Cane Corso Mastiff puppy. He is 15 months old. I've been told they make wonderful therapy dogs because of their loyalty and intelligence. Could you point me in the right direction. Balance, on my bad days, is horrendous. I have been black and blue from falling inside my own home. Any assistance will be appreciated

Answer
hi     sorry for the delay in writing - my computer has been dowwn for weeks. your "baby" sounds like a dandy! go to www.sitstay.com and look into their bowwow 1 & 2 videos. i buy my harnesses for my dog at: www.bridgeportequipment.com/ - they are inexpensive but fit & work beautifully! if your dog can HEAL he can offer tremendous balance help for you... if you need further help write again.   good luck! tami
