What's up dog?
My daughter has level 3 Autism and Girly is her psychiatric Assistance dog, she goes everywhere with her, she has been an absolute godsend. She helps with my daughter's social anxiety, keeps her calm, cheers her up when she's down, sits in the bathroom with her when needed, goes with her to the shops, medical appointments and even went with her into the hospital when she had an operation.....Girly is so calm and patient with my daughter, knows when hugs are needed and they even snuggle together at night. Without her my daughter might not be here today we are blessed and so grateful to have her!
