My Dad Doesn't Understand My Need for a Service Dog

I feel like it helps to explain what a POTS alert dog does. Most people hear service dog and don’t really understand that there are dogs others than guide dogs and psychiatric service dogs. Explaining that they are able to detect a POTs attack and performing DPT made a world of difference when explaining it to my mother. I have low blood pressure issues in addition to my POTs that makes it slightly different and I rarely fully faint (I’ll collapse and vomit or have an impossible struggle to stay awake) but getting a dog has become my top priority because I’ve taught my pet dog DPT after I first learned about it and I was SHOCKED at how effective it was. I’m very much a homebody because POTs makes going anywhere exhausting and having the ability for both extra stability when I get dizzy, lightheaded or my vision starts to go and then be able to help me rapidly reduce my heart rate when it spikes is going to change my life. I even saw one girl on YouTube whose POTs dog helps her with her laundry and that’s going to be another big game changer for me as going from a top loading washer to a front load dryer and getting things off shelves makes my laundry room the most likely room in my house for me to have an episode. Explaining the hows and whys and how it’ll change things might make a difference
