Nz therapy dog for Lucus

I am Lucus I’m a 9 year old boy who loves animals (but not bugs and chickens). I was diagnosed at the age of 6 with Autism and ADHD - they are my super powers, but I have anxiety too and that is my week-ness. I live in northland with my mum, step dad and my 2 brothers with my pets.

I look like your average kid when you meet me, on a good day, I just won’t make eye contact, but behind that mask I am kid who sees the world in a different way and that scares me, somedays it scares me so much I can’t face the world outside my house. My super-powers make me unique but my week-ness causes me to have very low confidence and self-esteem this effects me loads everyday.

I would love if you can help me get my very own therapy dog that can be with me when I need it the most and help me to gain some control of my anxiety so it doesn’t take over my superpowers completely. I have been waiting over a year to be able to get my dog and I am super excited because my dog is in training just now, we just need to pay for the dog and once training is complete I get to have the dog home.

Any extra money raised onto of the initial cost for the dog will go to ongoing costs for the life of the dog.
