Sophie Noel wants her autism assistance dog Loki to be allowed to accompany her on a flight.
By Sophie Madden & Kate TebbySophie Noel, 22, from Craven Arms, Shropshire, is autistic and trained her own dog Loki to help her when she feels anxious or overwhelmed.
"Everything is a challenge, I spent a lot of time wanting to be like everybody else and not understanding why I struggled with things that other people didn't seem to struggle with," she said. The family want a change in the law around owner-trained assistance dogs to ensure they are recognised. The Assistance Dog Assessment Association is a charity that offers people living with disabilities the opportunity to have their assistance dogs independently assessed.
