June

Well I would like to tell you a little bit about June. I know I should have written this a long time ago, however other things needed to get out first.

The beautiful animal in the picture is my June. She is my service dog in training. At the time of me writing this post , she is 8 months old Great Dane. Akc from an awesome breeder in LA.

See I have been diagnosed with medically induced PTSD as well as other medical issues that require the use of a service animal and well with me being as tall as I am the doctors suggested a Great Dane.

She is extremely smart and we have already done the first round of puppy school but of course money is an issue for training and she quickly grows out of her equipment more and more. Hense the main reason why i have a fundraiser going on my Facebook for her.

Because she is not fully trained its not best that I take her into the Hospitals or the school as of yet. You ask on how I cope. Carefully. Its also a day by day thing as well.

She does have a lot of energy and yes she is able to pick up on what I need. There has been several times I would be sitting on the bed and crying. She would come up to me and just love on me. To the point where I would just start laughing and giggle.

She has helped me stay chipper, and very energetic. She has her ups and her downs too. But I do believe when I can get her truly trained like she is supposed to be I can be a better person that I know she can make me be.
