Disability 101
WARNING TO ALL WHO MAY BECOME DISABLED IN THE FUTURE:
1.When you become disabled, you loose people you thought were friends.
2.If you use a wheelchair, nobody speaks to you directly anymore, they speak to the person pushing you.
3.If you aren't blind but you need a medical mobility service dog to help you walk and other things, people even your friends won't understand and many will expect you to leave your WORKING DOG at home when you visit.
4.If you have a service dog for
Epilepsy, he picks up on your seizures and helps stabilize you,
many times people won't let your dog do his job by making him get out of the way! (Pisses me off)
5.Again, the world of disabilities with service dogs and those in wheelchairs are quite different because wheelchairs aren't asked if they bite, which is stupid because a service dog is highly trained and is not allowed to be a service dog if they show any kind of aggression.
6.A person in a wheelchair can get a ride to town with someone because their chair can fit in a trunk or truck or van,
But no one wants dog hair in their vehicle. So I can have dog hair on my clothes and that's ok, but my service dog is a Great Dane he doesn't shed much and he gets 2 baths a month, more than that and his skin will dry out too much.
So when you become disabled eventually, make sure you are very rich so that you can afford the service dog or wheelchair you'll need, then have enough money to pay a full time driver so you don't become a shut in.
Good luck!
