A Seizure Dog For Evan

As a follow up to this incredible story aired about a year ago on The Early Show, Evan, has received his seizure dog, a glorious goldendoodle named Mindy and so far so good.

“Mindy has a new home and a relatively new family, so it’s an adjustment,” says Evan's mom Lisa. “But she’s been enjoying playing with our other dog, Dinky, and whenever Evan leaves the room, Mindy trails closely behind.”

“Evan hasn’t had a big seizure yet [since Mindy has been home], but Mindy has already been alerting us to some smaller seizures that would have gone unnoticed before,” says Lisa.

“Having Mindy is great!” says Evan, summing up his feelings about his new assistance dog.

His mom has to agree: “I think Mindy is going to change our lives in ways we aren’t even aware of yet.”

What an inspirational story and you can read all about the training on Evan's blog.
