SOME VETERAN EMAILED ME WONDERING F HE QUALIFIED FOR A DOG.--WELL..
#1. A VETERAN ( AND THERI FAMILY) GETS PREFERENCE
#2- TO #875 THERE ARE ALOT OF OTHER FACTORS... TO QUALIFY AND DISQUALIFY- SO I SUGGESTED HE SEND THAGT INQUIRY INFO ON OUR WEB.. AND I wrote THIS.....
no two dogs of ours are alike--dogs all seem to help with ptsd... however....
just to keep teh paperwork people happy, we never talk about ptsd---
because if we did TALK ABOUT PTSD someone made some rule that we would have to hire medical personell--
which is strange because it has already been proven teh dogs can do what medicine can not do... so
what they really need is more dogs in hospitals-- not doctors in kennels...
i am not treating it lightly, because from what i have seen of veterans, you all have some degree of it anyway...
and the last thing i need around this kennel is a bunch of desk type medical people--
we do have some md's and phd's here--- and they clean teh kennels with the rest of us.
so just to keep teh paperwork people happy, i suggest YOU JUST KEEP THE word vertigo--- we can deal with that.
THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME A GOOD TOPIC FOR THE DAILY DOGGIE-- DOCTORS IN KENNELS
THE DAILY DOGGIE IS AN EARLY MORNING RANT I WRITE EVERY DAY-
ALOT OF PEOPLE READ IT- SOMETIMES I DON'T KNOW WHY-
***
IT HAS BEEN PROVEN DOGS- AND ALOT OF OTHER ANIMAL EXPOSURE- HELP WITH THE PTSD OF TEH VETERANS WORLD.... SO HOW COME SOMEONE( WHO SHALL REMAIN NAMELESS) TRYS TO REGULATE THE DOGS. TEH MEDICAL WORLD RECOGNIZES THE SUCCESS OF DOGS, SEEMS TO ME THAT AS A TRAINER OF DOGS THAT HELP , I SHOULD BE CONSULTED ABOUT HOW THE MEDICAL WORLD DEALS WITH THAT PTSD.
BOY COULDN'T I HAVE FUN WITH THAT ONE. ALOT FEWER PILLS AND MORE FRESH AIR.-- THERE IS ALOT TO BE SAID FOR TEH OLD YANKEE STONE WALLS- 8 HOURS OF FRESH AIR ROLLING ROCKS AROUND BUILDING 6 FEET OF STONE WALL WOULD BE BETTER THAN ONE SLEEPING PILL WITH ALOT FEWER SIDE EFFECTS... ? SORE MUSCLES? GO BUILD ANOTEHR 3.3 FEET OF STONE WALL./
I WOULD HAVE TO ADD ONE MORE PART OF MY Rx -- THERE MUST BE MORE THAN ONE VETERAN ON THE PROJECT-- I DID READ TEH BOOK "TRIBE" ( nyt best seller a while ago) AND I AGREE WITH IT THERE IS A PROBLEM IN BONDING A GROUP OF MEN TOGETHER INTO A TIGHT GROUP OF SOLDIERS THEN SENDING THEM HOME basically alone WITHOUT THEIR "TRIBE"
BUT WHAT DO I KNOW
I AM WILLING TO BET AN 18 WHEELER OF NICE ROCKS- MAYBE NEXT APRIL--

the attribute to Sizzle,
I was there visiting with Ms Carlene when Sizzle and Bentley assisted her with their good off leash Manors and both Sizzle and Bentley laying on the floor as taught-- allowing kids to crawl on the floor all around them both not making a move.
Ms Carlene had stated that children were not Sizzles favorite people but still stayed in her place as educated to do when this 2 yr old girl comes over and doesn't trip but jumps right into the center of Sizzle all force! Sizzle stands up and so did Bentley not making a move.
It scared me, normal any dog would have snapped as to earn don't do that please!
But not Sizzle, she just stood at attention looking at Carlene like what now?????
Sadly today's children are not raised with the manors, respect, or discipline that theses dogs have been given
and if Sizzle had reacted it would have been her fault, not the child according to how things are today.
This gave me great respect to the smallest of work that goes into each dog.
Sad that we are not raising our children with the same rules.
