SERVICE DOG TRAINING
A service dog is an individual trained to perform specific tasks and to work with individuals with disabilities as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). According to the ADA, disabilities can be “physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disabilities.” The work of the service dog must be directly related to the handler’s disability.
