Are there any charities or financial groups that aid in the training of a psychiatric service dog (PSD?)
I have been legally disabled most of my life, but my psychiatrist and I recently agreed that I could and would benefit from the aid of a psychiatric service dog (PSD) for various issues including severe anxiety (which often prevents me from leaving the house) and OCD. The problem is that I am still in college and am having trouble affording the cost required to train such a dog. There are several groups in existence that aid in the training and/or placement of vision, hearing, seizure, and autism dogs... however, while my dog's training would be very similar to that of an autism dog, I do not have autism. Does anyone know anything about this--is there even help to be had?
I apologise if this is the wrong place to ask this; I am, unfortunately, new.
