Hedwig for the Win: Life with a Psychiatric Assistance Dog

By: Kuilboer, Fiona

Are you considering a Psychiatric Assistance Dog - or simply curious about what life with one looks like? You're not alone. And that's why I wrote Hedwig for the Win Life with a Psychiatric Assistance Dog.

This is the story of Hedwig, my golden Labrador, and how he turned from 'just a dog' into my lifeline. With honesty, warmth and a dose of Labrador humour, I share what it's really like to partner with a Psychiatric Assistance Dog - from the practical (Public Access Tests, travel, endless dog hair) to the profound (finding calm in chaos, surviving panic attacks, rediscovering freedom).

This isn't a sugar-coated tale. It's real, sometimes messy, often funny and always hopeful.

Whether you're considering a Psychiatric Assistance Dog, already on the journey, or just love a good dog story, this book will remind you that courage can be quiet, and healing might have four paws.

Hedwig's thought: 'Start every chapter with a snack; end every chapter with a nap. Boom. Bestseller.'
