My son with DMD got his service dog from Canine Assistants! The best experience, wonderful people, he is so happy. The way he looks at my son and just does what he needs to without a command. My son is so happy! Thank you canine assistants!

@TehAustrianMonk -As someone with a spinal injury and difficultly getting around, I can tell you how much a positive attitude keeps us from getting depressed or bitter about what we can't do. I try to always focus on how much I can STILL do, the fact that I can still walk, given the injury I have, is a miracle in itself, and something I am thankful for every day. I am planning to get a service dog, I'm really excited about it. Your comment is very kind, thank you for it.

I love the fact that people with these sorts of illnesses, or as a matter of face anyone with a disadvantage in moving around, seeing the world ect..ect.. are always happy, they have ever reason in the world to not be happy but yet they are so friendly, happy and proud of themselves.

This film is truly inspirational and very touching.
