About

Lilian is a kind-hearted bright young lady who is diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder and Anxiety. Her diagnoses cause her to second-guess every decision she makes, and panic in situations that others often take for granted. She has a difficult time connecting with her peers, making school and extracurricular activities a struggle. Lilian’s family is incredibly supportive but would like to see her gain as much independence as possible as she nears adulthood. Lilian believes having a Service Dog will be the key to making that happen.

DEAN helps Lilian by paying attention in loud and crowded places and will provide deep pressure therapy to help her redirect her focus during stressful situations. DEAN will also help Lilian by interrupting negative behaviors. These two are a dynamic duo, and we can’t wait to see where life will take them together!
