[MargaretL · Accepted solution]

The expenses are your medical expenses. 

1. Federal Taxes
2. Deductions and Credits
3. Scroll down to Medical, select Medical Expenses - follow the prompts, enter description and amount in Other Expenses - enter total amount for all your expenses; 

NOTE: You can include in medical expenses the costs of buying, training, and maintaining a guide dog or other service animal to assist a visually impaired or hearing disabled person, or a person with other physical disabilities. In general, this includes any costs, such as food, grooming, and veterinary care, incurred in maintaining the health and vitality of the service animal so that it may perform its duties.
