Do you have a Service/Companionship animal; and if so, how is that working out for the two of you?

I've never understood the term "Companionship" animal. Service animal I get, it's a no-brainer. But companionship? Isn't that what our pets already provide?
Regardless, I have a dog. He's goofy, stubborn, and has cost me thousands in vet bills. Would I do anything different if I could start over? Hell no. I love him more than I do most people and at times I love him more than I love members of my immediate family (particularly my wife)!

You have really got a point there; PO1 John Miller. That is a Good question.
Just off of the top of my head, cats aren't so great during crises. They get scared and run. At least this is my experience with my Emily. (Maybe I am blurring the line between a service animal and a companionship animal.)
Nevertheless, we adore one another; and she is a fabulous companion.

I have a cat.
When I get older, however, (And if I need one) I would love to have a trained Companionship/Service Dog.
