Hi my name is Puzzles and I have autism. When I was a puppy I had a hard time understanding commands from my master. I couldn t recognize his emotions and I became confused when the children were playing. Sometimes my master would take me on walks and I got scared when I heard cars or other loud noises. If other dogs barked I became frightened and covered my ears or hid under the bed. I loved this one toy, which was a squeaky duck. I could play this game for hours on end, but I couldn t comprehend why my master was annoyed by this toy.
Fortunately, when I was two years old and grew out of my puppy stage, my master brought me to the vet. That same day the veterinarian diagnosed me with autism. My master was so relieved because he had a name for my problem. He started reading books on puppies with autism. Slowly, we learned together how to control it. Today I still have autism, but I can manage it.
I wanted to give a bark to my sponsor. He/She truly wanted to get spread awareness on autism. You can catch me on the Town Green and in Geissler s raising awareness to people about this disorder.
