Some kids and teens are diagnosed with trauma or mental disorders. While the conventional route is to give medications to them, it’s no secret that emotional support animals are a therapeutic solution. If you have a kid or teenage whose struggling with some life complication, here are the ways that a support animal can help him or her:

  • Increase their activity levels – Yes, emotional support animals get your children moving. Since animals need play, your kids can play with them too. This boost in activity is essential to your child’s health and well-being.
  • Offers companionship and affection – Emotional support pets can be your kids’ true friends. They provide affection when other people can’t. Sometimes, kids who don’t open up to their peers do so with their emotional support pet.
  • Gives Smiles – Emotional support pets bring smiles to everyone’s faces. They give kids and teenagers a reason to be happy about.

Do you own an assistance animal? Register your pet. 

The Service Animal Registry of California invites you to have your assistance animal registered in order to designate its status. We also encourage you to take our online classes so you can be fully aware of your rights and gain more knowledge about your support animal.
