Life changing dogs
\I got my first dog in March 2021 at just 8 weeks old. I immediately joined Part of the Pack assistance dogs and began training with them. Ocho is now 16 months old and has just graduated as a fully trained assistance dog. I’m so proud of both me and him for achieving it. I’m a nurse and I use a wheelchair I wasn’t sure how having a dog would help me, or potentially hinder me in my work. But actually, he has helped me with my mobility and confidence and I’ve since gotten multiple promotions. Ocho is a mobility assistance dog but in the PotP community, we have Autism Dogs, Guide dogs, and even a Tourette’s dog. Assistance dogs are unbelievably clever and can do so much to help their humans. Check out my boy on Instagram @WatchOchoGrow and follow links to Part of the Pack if an assistance dog could help you too.
