Hmmm…, a therapy dog could be a huge blessing for this woman. While I don’t know from where one actually acquires a dog like this, I suppose maybe the funding is possibly the challenge. If she’s seeing a therapist, which I certainly hope she is, maybe s/he could give her some direction and possibly write a prescription for one so that insurance would help cover the cost, assuming she has insurance. Every state (I suspect anyway as mine does) probably has a Victim’s of Violent Crimes Compensation Fund; maybe she could contact them for assistance in the event she doesn’t have health coverage.
