Hi my name is Marie. I have epilepsy and a seizure alert dog. I live in Oregon and will start training a new puppy so in about a year I will need to give him to someone who does not go as much as me but who will take him everywhere. he knows how to do all comands including bark on a hand comand. so my question is would a service man or woman with epilepsy want an older dog till he passes. and keep in touch with me with him because he is my baby but i am a college student and he is in good health but getting old.
