I know I'm in a bad way when my cat won't leave my side when I'm sitting down and sleeps with me!
I realized it after the 2rd flair-up that put me in the hospital for 3 days, so when she did it again just before the third time and 5 days in the hospital, I watch her and become even more aware of what and how I'm doing things, loll so far ,so good

I HAVE Jack,he is a
Chihuahua. If had him since he was 7wks .he is my medical assist.dog and has saved my life twice.he prettymuch trained himself to fetch my rescue inhaler when I was in distress..he will nip at me when my o2 gets low,sometimes I dont notice. He can go anywhere I go.he has a government numberof register,and gets a paycheck every month from the state. But he's my life and I know unconditional love,he's Jack,my lol papa!

Consider Schnauzers, Bichons, or Poodles. Those breeds are known to be almost entirely non-shedding as they have hair rather than fur. I've had Schnauzers for 33 years with zero problems.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @A MyCOPDTeam Member ! I never thought there would be service dogs for COPD. Glad to hear you are getting benefit from your service dog. Breathe purposely!

Yes! I have Charley, the chocolate Chihuahua! So glad I saw your post, Sheela. I've been falling asleep without my CPap during the day and I was wondering why she jumps on me, licks my face and hits my face with her front legs. Do I stop breathing? She doesn't do it with my CPap. She was a stray that someone brought to me when my 13 yr old terrier died. So funny because I never would have picked a Chihuahua, because of their bad reputation as being aggressive. But she's all heart.❤️
