Hi and welcome to our blog! You may have heard or read about service dogs that have the ability to provide people with seizures some warning before these events happen, and you may have recently seen information on service dogs that can detect certain substances, such as peanuts, in the same manner that specially-trained narcotics dogs do. Our family had been passively doing research into seizure-response dogs and the training that was involved since Heather Bain developed seizures at the age of 13. After nine years of research, applications to the small number of service dog organizations that offer seizure-response service dogs, and being told Heather was not a candidate for their programs because she had too many other complicating health issues, we have finally found a non-profit that has offered to place and train a service dog.
In an attempt to offset expenses and the cost of the dog, we have designed an made Miracle Dog Cards that are available for purchase, with proceeds going towards Heather's service dog and the service dog organization. Also, we would be more than happy to work with anyone interested in more personalized or custom card designs, and we hope to start offering more card designs in the coming months. Again, thank you so much, and we hope you enjoy looking at what we have available!
