I am on fully disability.. My son is disabled. HE recieves income off my record right now. I was approved a service dog a year ago, and brought my first yorkie puppy home a day before mothers day last yr. Suzi has done wonders for the both of us, she has truely been great, and we are thankful every moment for her. I know i made the right choice getting a Yorkie as a service dog, and have never regreted it .
The problem is that my son , who is nearly 16 and high functioning , loves her so much that him and I tend to clash when it come to sharing Suzi. Suzi loves all the attention , of course she does, however, it is hard for me to (share) . When she is with me on the couch all comfortable he will just pick her up and take her ! I try and stop him, but it is too late
Or Suzi again will will be with me on the couch, and my son sits down on the other couch and calls her, she comes running to him, and stays with him for a while, then jumps back up with me. Is this confusing Suzi?
I am thinking of requesting the Psych. Dr. Writing a letter for my son to have his own service animal. AND i'd like honest opinions about bringing anther Yorkie into my home. WE brought Suzi home at 9weeks old. I am here 24/7 .I am not looking for a tiny yorkie baby full grown. I'd like a yorkie who is at least 7lbs as an adult. I know we can handle a yorkie puppy. WE have not have had 2 though. Suzi is just over a yr old. ANd is full of it. I know we would have to be very careful.
