Ms Debbie Carr:

We have been refused access to many places many times. It causes a lot of stress to the person with autism. For the family, you have a strong backbone after having a child with autism. I have been abused many times because of my son's behaviour. For some reason, people think he is my puppet and not my child. It does not stress me as much. I will answer the question about the dogs being independently trained as well. I have had my dog since 2017. I have never left Autism Dogs; I have support from them. They are always there for me in the background. We have a Facebook page. Gandhi went to his foster parents and stayed there for a few weeks because he does not like the sun. He is a very fussy dog. We left him down there, which was great. It is like a family. When we got refused the first time it was from a shop. I phoned Ms Carr and she immediately phoned the manager and sorted it out for me.
