Autism and animal assisted therapy is amazing for people on the spectrum and here is why. 🐶 Animal autism is a way of using things like dog therapy autism to help people on the spectrum over come issues in their life. Dog aid is one way to do this and I find this effective also, autism and cats is another highly effective way animals can help people with autism and aspergers syndrome. An autism service dog is a dog that is trained to be with a person with an autism spectrum disorder to help them manage difficult areas of their life. This isn’t the only mental health condition that animals are used in, dog therapy for depression is really popular. #autism #animaltherapy #autismdog #autismservicedogs #autismservicedog #love #dog (at Holy Island, Anglesey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj_Dy3uMQZs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am not sure of the original source, but it is so simple and clear I love it.
Would you walk up to someone’s wheelchair and try to pet it, poke it, talk to it, ask it’s name etc? I am not a pet, I am a medical device—much like a wheelchair.
So, what do you do? Nothing. Ignore it, and for goodness sake please let the handler go about their business. They just want to do their grocery shopping, physical therapy, watch the movie, get their Starbucks drink, and go about their life.

Once able to get my service dog once in my own place, this is one of my favorite service dog vests!!! I have tried many things to help me with my meltdowns but sometimes stim/fidget toys don't help or I don't have access to my weighted sloth plush or my other stuffed animals that help me soothe myself and I've done so much research and dogs are able to get trained to apply deep pressure to people who are autistic for meltdowns and anxiety. I think it would help me so much as last two times I had meltdowns it was longer than they were prior to getting identified and it was hard to get back to baseline after. My recent meltdown was just on August 2nd and it was in public and I was so overwhelmed and overloaded and couldn't stop crying. I went into shutdown afterward. #actuallyautistic #autisticadult #autisticwomen #autismacceptance #autisticcommunity #autisminwomen #lateidentifiedautistic #autisticallyme #differentlywired #futureservicedoghandler #autismservicedog #autisticshutdown ♾🐾🐶

#gooddogfamilyquotes ・・・ Today Cade and Charlie (and I) waited outside with the rest of the school for the National Anthem and Pledge of Allegiance. For the past 2.5 years Cade has gone directly to his special education classroom in the morning and he would join his General Education classmates later in the morning. We have made some trial schedule changes and this is a big one. Cade has always had a social personality and desire to be around people, BUT he struggles with anxiety and conversation. Charlie not only lessens the anxiety he has, she has given him and his peers a great topic for conversation! She is the most amazing social bridge ❤️🐾❤️🐾 #gooddogautismcompanions #grateful #autismservicedogs #inclusion #charlieandcade #positivechange

Wade was enjoying his visit with Molly. Loving on her, throwing the ball for her. He even said her name and said "ball" when he wanted to throw it for her again. This makes me even more anxious to get him an #autismservicedog . #goldenretriever #autism #nonverbal #autistic

Service dog training: It's harder than I thought it would be.
Service dog training: It’s harder than I thought it would be.
Sorry I haven’t written in a while. Here goes nothing…. Service dog training, it seems easy right? You train the dog, take them out into public, and they slowly grow into a good service dog. WRONG. It’s really hard, harder than I ever imagined. There will always be problems with public access such as people not knowing the laws under the ADA, things such as “It will be too long of a car ride” or…

My new little brother is coming home this Monday! He is in training to because an #autismservicedog for @freshcuppat who is my girl's room-mate and best friend. This little pup is half Lab, half Australian Cattle Dog, and has a big job to do, just like me! I'm going to help teach him everything I know, and we plan on keeping each other sharp and ready for action! I love him already! #goodboy #goldenretrieversofinstagram #goldenretriever #sdit #servicedogintraining #labrador #australiancattledog #puppy #puppylove

Autism and Service Dogs!!
I have an at-home #servicedog, and think that #autismservicedogs can be extremely helpful! I got Mikka for other purposes initially, but have found that she is really tuned in to me. She made me realize a lot more about what I actually needed, and helps me with several things.
.
This is a hand signal for a command that I taught her, which I call “go scout.” (The TV is on to show that she got no verbal prompt, though she knows both). I think it’s something that could be helpful for many autistics. She gets up and “leads the way” for me to leave my room when I need - like if I’ve watched something creepy on TV, or if I hear a little noise, etc. It’s comforting and makes me feel better about leaving my room, if I’m in a creeped out mood. Having her go “scout” ahead of me is great for #anxiety, and helpful for other reasons, as well.
.
Wondering if anyone else is #autistic and has a service dog? I really feel like they could help many people, if more knew about them! I also delight in #teaching Mikka silly things...like to play pattycake, receptively label body parts (she knows 9), or roll a giant die😅 She also has a way to say “yes” to a handful of familiar questions (working to expand her working vocabulary), which is one of the best things I’ve taught her. And she loves to learn!!
.
Let me know if anyone is interested in learning about #SDs and my experience with #ownertraining, how I taught her this task or any others, etc. I’m certainly not a guru of #dogtraining, but I feel like much that I’ve learned can be good supplemental info, or of particular interest to those that with #autism (and, those that care about us, and might want to help us train such tasks!).

We hate to see our kiddos sick! But so glad he has his Charlie-girl to comfort him. #gooddogfamilyquotes: "My boy had an ultrasound today. I didn't like that I couldn't be on the bed with him, so I laid my head down at the end of the bed so he knew I was still close by." -Charlie 🐾💕🐾💕 #gooddogautismcompanions #sheisamazing #charlieandcade #autismservicedogs #blessed

what they don’t tell you about owner training an SD: you may have a 3 day migraine and be dumb enough to let your dog burn his paws. BUT clover worked naked having had zero exercise (including a down stay in a cafe) and only startled barked once so that is what i call progress! #servicedog #servicedoglife #servicedogsofinstagram #servicedogintraining #sdit #medicalalertdog #medicalalertservicedog #autismservicedog #medicalalertdog #medicalalertdogintraining #tibetanterrier #tibetanterriersofig https://www.instagram.com/p/B0RkBcxhouP/?igshid=m5o4ptgqbtvw
