Question
My son has ADD and some neurological disorders. I have heard that there are dogs that are good companions for this type of child. Can you suggest any?

Answer
Now are you looking for a certain breed of dog,or a dog that is trained to help your son?

If your looking for a breed of dog,usualy labs are very good with kids and will tolerate alot of things

Now for dogs trained for this I found some websites that might be of some help to you

http://www.caninecompanions.org/national/our_services.html

These are all organizations that train dogs to help people with a number of disabilities
