I'm curious, are there dogs out there trained to guide and work with
psychiatric disorders? If so, how is this training implemented.
Do any schools do that sort of work? Or is it too much for the dog to take on?

It is available on Bookshare. I am not sure if it is available on bard. It was a really great book and I came away with a really strong appreciation for the task the dogs do.
