Wow! Amazing people.

And wow.
At $6,000 and with me doing $30,000 worth of training... My dog was a three-way service dog out of the five qualifying.
This is looking like it is getting pretty serious and wow I am just floored.
Well.
I definitely expected quite a bit of this to get set up and ready. But looking at the cold hard facts of what I am up against really gives me a lot of Hope.
I don't have to raise $30,000. I only have two raise a small fraction of that. And in fact I'm actually doing very well and getting there.
Thank you so very much to everybody who has supported us and helped us out this is for you to see in black and white.
A PTSD service dog is an absolute lifesaver. And I wholeheartedly support organizations that are doing such amazing work to help the community.
that being said there's no way I could raise the $10,000 for a trained service dog. Honestly enough I'm struggling at $3,800...
Good thing I got my check and hopefully I can put in a little bit of my weekly funds this week and see if we can't get closer to the $4,000 marker!!!!!!
It definitely looks like I need to start posting up some more possessions for sale.
Just shocked to see this. And thought I'd share this.
Maybe someone might find use of this and the link
I know I did.
well there's some really amazing organizations out there doing some absolutely amazing work however the main thing that stands out to me is that they outsource the main bulk of training to prisoners in prison which would really cut down on the time and labor cost.
Personally I'm an extremely highly accomplished dog trainer. I've worked with dogs as well as horses and I've even trained cats.
Yes training a cat is an extreme effort. Absolutely extreme.
However you get a pretty amazing cat!!!!!!
And just like anything if you make that connection and you train that dog... You are definitely going to have some amazing chances for success.
Service dogs absolutely are worth every single penny I can personally attest to that.
Zeus was a rescue dog with health problems. I have a feeling the reason why he was so amazing because he didn't have as long as I would have wished.
As much as I'd like to do more I think I might have to power down a little bit of my available hive....
It is a thought hopefully it's a lot that I don't have to go through with however you never know what's going to happen.
Thank you so very much everyone for your support help and effort. This would be the reason why I need to be patient as well. Starting from a good position would be my best bet at this time.
and investing in a good puppy is definitely something that I need to do.
A service dog is huge responsibility and this is going to be a huge expenditure for me.
Super excited and blessings are abound everywhere I just need to keep my head down and keep doing my thing.
Donor list, thank you.
$30 from a family friend.
Me @$80 from working to help my family this weekend.
and
for the huge hive vote today.
Don't forget as well they are great.
All these people are adding on top of my own thousand dollars life savings and the $2,600 that I sold my bike to get.
Thank you so very much everybody from the bottom of my heart.
