Hello, my 11 year old brother has been diagnosed with ADHD. Can he qualify for a emotional support dog? The list only mentions ADD, but can he qualify also? Thank you!
I haven’t been professionally diagnosed but would like to get my dog certified as an esa. How should I go about getting him registered?
In order to make your dog an ESA you need to connect with a licensed healthcare professional who is licensed in your state of residence. They will evaluate your mental health and agree that an ESA could be beneficial to the treatment of your condition. They will then issue an ESA letter which allows you to call your dog an emotional support dog.

I have severe depression issues as well as ADHD and anxiety issues. My Golden Retriever just passed away. His name was Toby. I am on disability and he was actually my sister’s dog but he was with me pretty much 24/7. I knew he was a big help for me and my struggles. He gave me confidence and unconditional love.
Hi, pretty sure i already commented on here but i have a new question. A few weeks ago I was threatened. I went home that night and had a panic attack. I kept having them. I didn’t want to go to the place it happened (it happened outside of the school).
I was so scared to go back that I had to calm myself down on the bus. I also see a school psychologist every Friday for it. I’m still shaken up from it and would like to know if an ESA/ESD would help with that. Thanks!
You would need to talk to your psychologist about this. They will be able to assess your situation and see if an ESA can help with your condition. If your current psychologist isn’t knowledgeable about ESAs, you can get a second opinion and connect with another doctor or therapist.
