Blog 5: Scholarly Secondary Source

MLA Format Sited Source:
 Yount, Rick, Meg Olmert, and Mary Lee. "Service Dog Training Program for Treatment of Posttraumatic Stress in Service Members." http://eds.a.ebscohost.com.ezproxy.uky.edu/ehost/detail/detail?vid=6&sid=94d86ac1-0936-4bf6-868c-b7f0f8b7e5bd@sessionmgr4004&hid=4110&bdata=JnNpdGU9ZWhvc3QtbGl2ZSZzY29wZT1zaXRl#AN=79808391&db=a9h. U.S. Army Medical Department Journal, 1 June 2012. Web. 18 Oct. 2015. <http://eds.a.ebscohost.com.ezproxy.uky.edu/ehost/detail/detail?vid=6&sid=94d86ac1-0936-4bf6-868c-b7f0f8b7e5bd@sessionmgr4004&hid=4110&bdata=JnNpdGU9ZWhvc3QtbGl2ZSZzY29wZT1zaXRl#AN=79808391&db=a9h>. 

I chose this secondary source because it discusses where the use of service dogs first came into action and how it's still an overlooked job in our entire communities. This article was a bit more focused on PTSD and how the service dogs help members of our military or retired military members with PTSD. I chose this article in particular because it covers two major problems that we still haven't discussed. 
This piece grabbed my attention from the start when I read over it because I never truly understood how much PTSD and service dogs were looked over and forgotten about. Knowing someone who had PTSD helps me see the true problem now that I have read upon it and been informed. Thats why I want to use this piece as a secondary source. It brings up just how overlooked service dogs are and how well trained and varied they are. This is my secondary source because it is what backs up my Wildcat Service Dogs and why they do what they do.
