More Info

Hi. My name is Caden! I was born with 1p36 Deletion Syndrome which caused a variety of complex medical issues. A few of the medical issues are Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (epilepsy), a heart defect known as Left Ventricular Non Compaction (LVNC), a compromised immune system, cortical visual impairment, among several others medical complications. I am non-verbal and rely on my parents, my brother and my wheelchair for mobility. My parents have longed and yearned to make my life easier and me happier in all ways which led them to searching for a service dog for several years now. 

Recently, we have learned of a place nearby that we can get obtain a service dog for me(Caden)! It is close to our home for training and medial purposes which would allow easier access for the dog and I to get to know each other as it learns to help me. It being closer to my home is a plus as we already travel so much for doctors and hospital visits. A service dog would truly enhance and help my own quality of life; while providing companionship along with emotional and social support. 

A service dog can help provide deep therapy pressure when needed for anxiety and restlessness in stressful situations, provide medical alerts, retrieving items for daily use, assisting in providing emotional support, companionship, and communication. A service dog would assist in emotional well being from becoming overly stressed and keeping my highly stimulation and anxiety to a minimum.

Would you please consider helping me and my family in obtaining a service dog through Snowy Pines and Paws for a Purpose to help me achieve goals and allow my parents to know I have a best friend in a lovable, caring four legged dog. Thank you.
