First of all I want to say that I absolutely love this. I have a SDiT and a lot of our commands are the same, which is really encouraging to see!

That being said- I, too, have multiple disabilities and have come into some issues with training my SDiT- a lot being that I feel like I'm overwhelming her. Do you have any advice for other people out there with multiple disabilities that require animal assistance?

Thank you so much for this!

Woops, sorry, I realise I didn't put the whole question in there. I feel like I'm overwhelming her with the amount of tasks that I'm training her.

For example, she picks ups/brings me items, reminds me of medications, blocks/posts, finds exits, DPT, alerts me to calls/knocks, and scans rooms before I enter them. Sometimes I just worry like it may be too much for her. She's not bad at them- she's actually really good at those tasks, but now has issues with basic tasks (her down stay is back to being atrocious, for example, sob).

Also, hope you don't mind, I gave you a follow!

She's two now. I'm glad that it doesn't worry you, though! I'll be more confident re-training. I've, admittedly, been hesitant the second time around due to worrying about overwhelming her, so now when I go back into it I'll be assertive.

Thank you very much!
