Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Posted September 15, 2004 Sally - Where are you located? Damn...last winter I had an article on an OT called 'floor time' for autistic children and I know I have an article on pet therapy for autistic children too. gotta go find it......anyone have a good scanner if I can find my articles?? I would fax them to you. Dale - Sally Trew We are already having to accept that one grandson is autistic and that may or may not have been caused from a reaction to vaccines given to him as an infant. Hugs, Sally Quote
Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Posted September 16, 2004 Dale, I would love to read that. I do know that pets work wonders for autistic kids. I went to the pound and found a wonderful dog for him. She never leaves his side. He is very attached to her which as you know, is not the norm for the autistic children. She is a 3 year old shepherd mix. Her name is Halo. - Dale Bernucca<dbernucca < > Wednesday, September 15, 2004 11:48 AM Autism Therapies Sally - Where are you located?

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 The real reason I logged back on before my evening really gets underway w/ the kids. I found the article. It was in Contemporary Pediatrics, Jan04. It doesn't give a whole lot of detail on how the assistance dogs are specifically trained to help kids w/ autism and ADHD but there is a bit of info you could easily follow up on. Apparently it's not uploaded yet at the site's archives www.contemporarypediatrics.org but I do have an extra copy. E-mail me if you'd like me to mail it to you!
