A parent wrote to a doctor that she has a ten-year-old kid who’s who is on the autism spectrum. She was asking is whether a dog would be a good fit for her son since he asked for a dog. But at the same time, she knows that her son is picky.

Here was the answer:

Dogs, for example, yellow therapy labradors, are known to be loving. They help children and the elderly. Animals have emotions and with that, a person has to first do research and even ask a vet if they can recommend a specific breed. It can be challenging for owners, especially children, to perform the day-to-day chores needed to care for the dog. Puppies need to learn good behavior. Parents must also speak with their kids and review the tasks associated with dog companionship.
