So thinking about dogs again. I do have my emotional support cat. But brain is weird today since I’m still recovering from a heavy crash. 2 full days in bed, leading into a 3rd day.

A conversation on huskies came up and so that lead to a little research. My long term goal is to be mentally and financially stable to handle and care for a husky. Then I went down the rabbit hole on why a husky.

I want a dog. But a dog that requires me to get up and do physical activities. Especially when I’m depressed and become crippling unable to care for myself. So, having a demanding dog would force me to still be up and moving.

And the more I think about why I want this dog the more I realize maybe I’m going about this all wrong. So I looked up best emotional support dogs and came across this gem again.

I suffer greatly from anxiety, crippling depression, bipolar, cptsd, and can’t even care for myself in those states. So, maybe what I need isn’t emotional support dog but a service dog.

An emotional support cat helps too. Nothing says I can’t have both. Especially when they both help me.
