Migraine Dogs is a group of people who are disabled by chronic migraine — a neurological disease consisting of various symptoms throughout the body — and who have, are training, or want a service dog to help them. A service dog, by US definition, is a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability. Service dogs for migraineurs perform various tasks that include alerting the handler that a migraine is about to begin, helping with mobility if the handler has vertigo or hemiplegic weakness/paralysis, guiding the handler if they have blind spots to total blindness during migraine episodes, retrieving items the handler has trouble getting due to a variety of symptoms, get help from others (including bringing a note to strangers/emergency personnel if the handler can't talk due to aphasia), and more.
