Seizure Dog
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

How would you go about getting your own dog to be ur personal medical dog for seizures. She is only 1 right now but has stopped a few. And stays with me like she's attached.

Look up dog training in phone book or this interweb thingy and ask around. Explain what you want dog to do for you, and ask if they can help or know someone.

Security guard at my local library threatened to call the cops if I didn't show him service dog ID. I told him "no ID's required by Fed law." I told him to"hang tight" I got a copy into glove box". I produced it, he was confused. I told him they were All over the inter web, $20 to $200. They aren't required, or necessary. Unless, someone is trying pass the dog off as a pro.

If you ever have to go before a judge concerning your dog, say suing a business for not giving you "equal access", or God forbid a bite, or someone says that's not s sevice dog (fine upwards of s grand and jail time) it's good to have the trainer on speed dial, to testify, but you can train your own, provided you are qualified to do so.
