Considering Getting a Service Animal for PoTS and Mobility

Does anyone have a service animal? I'm considering getting one to help with my PoTS alerts and DPT, as well as with mobility. Also to stop people trying to push my wheelchair. Can people give me advice? UK based, so please don't give advice on 'how' to get one if you're not UK :3

I love my service boy, he is very helpful and super sweet. Having said that you lose a lot of privacy and can get lots of questions/stares in public. The dog will go with you everywhere and people will ask invasive questions.
