and I suppose those are the main ones at present.
I understand you are looking into an assistance dog but please bear in mind your ability to care for the dog too
I am wheelchair bound too and would like a dog but cant work out how I could take it out clean up after flirting take to vets and stuff
But I am sure you would get advice around this
Have you thought about a cat I know they wont assist but can be good company and can also fend more for themselves
