Severely Allergic Teen Forced To Live With Sister's Service Dog

Here at I Can Has Cheezburger, we have witnessed the power that service dogs can have when it comes to changing lives. From the human and service dog duo Jack and Alison to the dog who saved a baby's life, we have learned to not underestimate the power of a highly trained dog. Today we have a story about a severely epileptic teenager who cannot cope without severe and potentially harmful medication. Her doctor recommended that this girl get a service dog, which ends up being a great idea that really positively benefits this girl. The only problem? Her sister is severely allergic to dogs and can barely stand to be in the same room.

After years of being forced to live in the same house as a dog she is severely allergic to, the teenager leaves her family behind to go off to college. She avoids visiting the home with a dog she is allergic to most of the time, until her mom's wedding approaches and she refuses to go. Is she being an a-hole by refusing to attend? What would you do in this kind of situation? Scroll down to hear the whole story:

Hmm, we wonder where this is going. There has to be a lot of drama in a family for a child to not go to their parent's wedding, but the fact that this woman's sister and her service dog are there too raises some questions about the back story. Let's keep reading and find out exactly what happened…

Whaat? That's awful that the thing that can really help this woman's sister is something that she's allergic too. It sounds like she's mainly allergic to dog fur and dander, which poodles don't have, so hopefully the family can find a poodle for the sister to have. These days there are so many hypoallergenic breeds. Portuguese water dogs, Bichon Frise, Aussie doodles, hopefully the family can find a dog that everyone can love.
