A Life Changing Assistance Dog for Isaac

An assistance dog could change Isaac's life dramatically.
Our miracle boy, Isaac, has a very rare metabolic condition which could result in brain damage, coma or even be fatal due to high levels of toxic ammonia building up in the body. An assistance dog could help prevent this. Isaac has recently had several occurrences of high ammonia only discovered by routine blood tests and he was not showing any symptoms. We'd like to trial training an assistance dog to alert us when it smells high ammonia. This dog would also assist with other complex challenges in daily living functions enabling Isaac to have greater participation in family and community life and build his independence. We will share our experience of an assistance dog with the Australian and Worldwide metabolic associations and groups to help build up the body of evidence for this potentially life changing addition to our family. It’s going to cost approximately $40,000 not including ongoing costs.
