PASSAGE: _____________________________________________
Mona doesn’t like to ask people for help.
But it is hard for her to perform daily activities on her own. She is almost
13, yet she is no larger than a 5-year-old. Mona has trouble keeping her
balance and can’t walk very far. When she uses a wheelchair, she can’t push
it herself. Fortunately, Mona has a wonderful service dog named Sam.
A service dog is a dog that has been
trained to assist someone who has a physical problem. Sam lets Mona lean
on him when she walks. He also pulls her wheelchair and turns lights on
and off.
When Mona drops something, Sam picks it up.
He even pulls her socks off at night. Sam also helps Mona with everyday
tasks at school. He carries her books from class to class in a special
backpack.
He puts Mona’s completed assignments trash
in her teachers’ homework trays. In the lunchroom he throws away her trash.
Besides making Mona less dependent on other people, Sam helps her lead a
fuller life.
Mona’s classmates flock around Sam
like geese. This has helped her make friends. Sam also helps Mona be more
active. With his aid, she raised over $500 in a walk-a-thon for her
local humane society. Because of Sam, Mona doesn’t have to ask people for
help.
Sam brings her closer to other kids. And
he even helps her contribute to her community.
