We have all heard the term “service dog” and have a good idea what it is they do. There are dogs for the blind, for the infirm, and also service dogs for the deaf and children getting over emotional and physical ordeals.
However, this article deals with PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) service dogs. They are a rare and wonderful breed of dog who can, through action, calm a stressed or anxious person from acting out! They ease anxiety simply by touching and meeting their owner’s eyes.
Honestly, how can a human being feel bad when they know there is a dog there that only wants to see them happy?

His name is Brutus and, with a name like that, you would think of a guard dog, something rough and tumble, but he has shown himself to be quite sympathetic. Go check him out on the video!
