We believe a smart pup will not only aid Sammy with his daily tasks, but it will also provide him with a friend – a sense of companionship he so longs for and deserves. These interactions negatively affect his confidence, anxiety levels, sleep, eating, and overall general wellbeing. As his parents, it breaks our hearts watching him try to approach others and then be rejected because of his unusual mannerisms and behaviours. Sammy is now becoming aware of that he is different from his peers and he struggles to connect and make friends. We are fundraising for a Smart Pup because animals (particularly dogs) help Sammy centre himself, feel safe and happy. Despite these challenges, he has grown into a strong, sweet natured little boy who brings so much joy to others. At age 3 Sammy was diagnosed with non-verbal level 3 autism, severe speech apraxia, sensory processing disorder and social anxiety. During his birth, Sammy almost died due to oxygen deprivation – still, he fought through and continues to fight each and every day.
