psychiatric service dogs

Because insurance doesn't cover any part of getting a service dog, it is a very expensive process. From food, medical care, training, and boarding for 2+ years during their time training, most service dogs from programs cost $30,000 or more! Non-profits rely on donations to help disabled individuals receive their dog, while for-profit companies require payment directly from the individuals.

Have had a service dog 12 years living in Florida and every doctor or business verbally harass us. Does any law state that an old black female can't have the ADA or police protection?

My husband and I are bringing home a two month old puppy on Thursday.

I learned earlier today that you can have a service dog just at home, which is what I need.

I have OCD, C-PTSD, and anxiety with depressive episodes. I’d like to train him to distract me when I’m having an anxiety attack/having high anxiety, have him demand attention when I’m in a depressive episode, etc.

I can go days or weeks being completely okay and then something little will trigger me. How would that work with having a service dog?

Thank you!
