Huber Heights -- A 6 year old boy who has Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy and cognitive delays is getting the help he needs through man's best friend and United Rehabilitation Services, also known as URS.
Tristan Bowling has been getting life changing therapy and services at URS since he was born.
He suffered from a stroke inside of his mother's womb.
"No mom wants to hear it, but then as a mother you're like okay, what's the next step," said Christa Bowling, Tristan's Mother.
The next step was seeking help through URS.
"We serve most of these people throughout their lifetimes, they start as early as six weeks and some of our older clients are in their 80's now," said Dennis Grant, URS Executive Director.
He receives speech and physical therapy there throughout the week. He also has a service dog through PAWS for Ability, name Snowflake.
"She's trained to alert to those seizures if he has them and help mobility wise, if he would drop something in his wheelchair. You know she could give it back to them and she's also just his best friend," said Christa.
The center helps more than 400 kids and adults with disabilities daily.
"They have their own unique personality,as you see Tristan, Tristan has his own personality and we want to allow Tristan to be able to give that personality to the world. We don't want a physical limitation to limit him from being who he is," said Bobbi Mouson, Tristan's Physical Therapist.
Meet Tristan and Snowflake and hear more about the services URS has to offer tonight at 10 on Fox 45 and 11 on ABC 22.
