Smile This is not professional advice

We are a dog breeder and one of our customers has an autistic boy about the age of your son, and they asked if the child could pick out his own puppy. Of course.

I put all the litter on the ground and the child sat down in front of them. One puppy ran straight out to the child and he picked it up.

I'm told that they have been close friends ever since.

I don't know if puppy therapy works but it sure didn't hurt.

Good luck.

I believe it always works. Nothing like a dog to change a persons life.

Rates have increased dramatically in the last 25 years .

I wonder about all the chemicals that have been added to household cleaners , liquid laundry detergent is toxic , even ivory hand soap changed the recipe and is now something that looks like soap but it isn't , we put these things on our skin and skin is porous . Those stupid dryer sheets like bounce are pure poison with known carcinogens in them - when i go for a walk in the neighbourhood the stench of chemicals from dryer sheets is very common .

We live in a chemical soup that no one knows the long term risks of .

Government isn't doing their part to get a handle on air and water pollution.
