autism assistance dogs
did you see the article on the one show today (Fri 29th Feb)
interesting section about about a dog being used to support an autistic child, much like guide dogs support the blind.
I guess not so much a guide dog as a bridge dog.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/page/item/b0091xyg.shtml?filter=category%3AletterO&scope=iplayercategories&start=1&version_pid=b0091xtr
the article starts 7 and half minutes in, unfortunately you can't fast forward.
i gather that a docu-fiction programme will be airing in april.
