Selma got her golden canine Scout in 2019 following her MS diagnosis one year earlier.
She spoke about Scout during an interview with People, explaining that she brought him into her life for a sense of stability.
‘I’m a single mom, and I am alone a lot with my kid, and I wanted legitimate support,’ she said.
The Legally Blonde star shared that Scout is trained to provide her with physical assistance.
‘He’s with me all the time. If I fall into a big [muscle] spasm or have some trouble moving and need to recalibrate, he can get between my legs, help me get up, and balance me. It’s given me a lot of independence,’ she explained.
And about her 12-year-old son Arthur, she shared, ‘My son, when he goes to his dad’s, he loves knowing Scout is by my side.’

‘I just cried,’ Blair recalled. ‘I had no capability to process.’
‘I knew the pain was real. I thought it was. But I did start to convince myself, “You’re overly sensitive. There’s nothing wrong with you. Get it together, you lazy, lazy whatever,”‘ she said.
