PTSD / Panic AttacksTrue Blue dogs for PTSD and panic attacks learn to provide anxiety alert. Each individual expresses anxiety in different forms. Once we identify a dog for you, you will be working closely with our Cognitive Behavior Therapist specializing in PTSD and Panic Attacks. Together as a team, we will identify whether you need a service dog or an emotional support dog, as well as the tasks the dog needs to perform to assist you.
Dogs make a positive life-changing experience because you become the most important person in the True Blue Service Dog world, and that empowers you to feel loved. A True Blue dog will help you with:
