A Canadian Labradoodle is scheduled to air on CNN's Larry King Live on April 2, which is World Autism Awareness Day.

Considering the large number of children being diagnosed with autism, and the fact that the dog used is the type I breed, I found this story worth sharing.
This precisely what these hybrid dogs were developed to do. What a noble cause! That they make wonderful pets too is just icing on the cake.

Tink,
That is a beautiful story, Yes indeed it is a very noble cause, it must give you great pleasure to know that your furbabies will put a smile a childs face. I'll be sure to tune in and watch on April 2nd.
Sincerely,

That is great Tink. I am sure your labradoodles have made many people feel special and happy.

I've worked with individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities for many years - it always amazes me to see how they will respond to an animal.

Great article Tink! I don't know if we can get Larry King or not, never watched him before. I'll check it out.

I have three teen brothers that ride my bus in the afternoon. All three have autism. The stories the teachers tell.....anyway...I wish these boys had a animal to help them. Their parents are getting divorced and a pet or service animal just doesn't fit in their life right now. What a shame.
