I think it's a good idea to go visit some puppies IRL... as others have said, be very careful not to get too attached to one and buy from a pet store! Make SURE to get one from a good breeder, good rescue, or good re-home.
You should like you are really thinking this through, so I do hope it works out for you. |
He still needs to be seeing his own therapist or Psych Dr. in order to obtain the letter. His father's Psych Dr. probably is not going to write him a letter is he is not been treated.
To the OP. read up on your rights regarding having a dog for this purpose. Legally, a landlord/management is not able to charge extra for this type of animal. That is against the law.
I wish him the best as well. I do not want him taken adantage of. He has rights and responsibiltes , owning a dog for this specific purpose. If things are not followed strictly by the law , either the tenat or landord can be sued.
