Carmen Said:

How do I, a college student, get financial assistance for the care of a service dog?

We Answered:

I've never head of a way to get financial assistance to care for a service dog.

It is your choice to use a service dog instead of using other assistive devices. Also, there is more to it than just food, general care, and veterinary bills.

It takes 18-24 months to train a service dog. That means that if you start with a puppy, you have to pay for training devices such as puppy pads for household accidents, a crate, toys, frequent vaccinations, training classes for socialization, basic obedience, and advanced obedience. Even if you think you can train the dog all on your own, you still need to attend some classes with it so that you can practice what you have taught your dog around lots of distractions...distractions that are plentiful in such classes. You also need to buy gear such as vests/capes/harnesses, leashes, collars, bags for picking up poop, etc.

A service dog is expensive and it is assumed that if you choose to use one, you are also choosing to pay the costs that go along with using one.

Kind of wish I knew about that when I was a kid. But Army was my heritage, so off to the Army I went. Can't say as I regret it, it's family tradition.
