When a professional states, "Your child has Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)", it is enough to make your whole world fall apart. What does it mean to be on the autism spectrum? How will this affect your child's life, your life, the life of your family, and others you interact with? What sorts of medications, therapies, and alternative methods are used to help manage the disorder? What are the financial and legal ramifications? How will this affect schooling, your spiritual growth, and everyday life? These are just a few of the questions that will rapidly cross your mind.

Caring for Autism: Practical Advice from a Parent and Physician delves into all these questions and more. As the father of a daughter with ASD and as a trained psychiatrist who specializes in ASD, Dr. Michael A. Ellis provides a holistic view of what comes after diagnosis. In user-friendly tones, he answers the most commonly asked questions about what it's actually like to live with ASD, what medications and therapies are available, and the global impact it has on the child's environment. With the help of his wife, Lori Layton Ellis, to provide a mother's perspective, Dr. Ellis shares personal stories of their 10-year journey in order to provide insight and support for anyone - patient, parent, caregiver - traversing the difficulties of autism.

Not for tough chewers
Color: Blue
Cute toy, good concept but definitely not for super chewer. Got it at such a price that I let him destroy it because he was having so much fun. You only have one birthday a year after all.

fun toy
Color: Orange
Very cute toy .My dog loves it. He is hard on toys and loves playing pully. So far it is holding up really well. It is a good size for medium to large dogs. I think if you have a small breed it may be to large. The color is a vivid orange and white. I really think your dog will love it.

Didn’t Last
Color: Blue
Cute toy and was fun for either quiet play or rowdy play. It didn’t last as long as I expected but it was fun for a while.

Will buy again
Color: Orange, Color: Orange
This was one of the first toys I got my dog and he LOVED IT. I sadly had to throw it away because he peed on it but this is something I will definitely repurchase. Perfect for tug of war and playing fetch. Definitely not indestructible as he did rip it a little but it took him a LONG time to do that
