“Being a young disabled person can be daunting, but facing the world with an adorable fluffball by my side makes it so much easier.”
This is Erin Condrin. Condrin lives in Queensland, Australia, and has Classical Type Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome — a tissue disorder that causes difficulty with tasks like writing and tying shoelaces, as well as joint dislocations up to 20 times a day.

For Condrin, EDS also results in other conditions causing a large number of chemical allergies and complications eating food. But since mid-2015, her service dog Lacey, who she found through Canine Helpers Australia, has been a source of support.

Just last week, Condrin and Lacey donned matching custom made outfits as they prepared together for Condrin's senior formal.
"Lacey brought a smile to everyone's faces," Condrin told BuzzFeed. "The ladies at the hairdresser's took lots of photos and kept giggling whenever they looked over at her."

"Lacey has many different costumes," said Condrin. "So it was natural she'd have a dress that matched mine. We asked my very talented dressmaker if she'd sew Lacey a skirt out of the left over material from my dress, and she was all for it."
