WHERE DO YOU START?
WHAT ARE SERVICE DOGS AND THERAPY DOGS?
A service dog is specially trained to perform specific tasks to assist individuals with disabilities. These tasks can include guiding individuals who are visually impaired, alerting individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, pulling a wheelchair, alerting to medical conditions, and providing support for individuals with mobility or balance issues. Service dogs are trained to work with their handlers in various environments to help them navigate daily life safely and independently.
Therapy dogs are trained to provide comfort, affection, and support to people in various settings such as hospitals, nursing homes, schools, and disaster areas. Therapy dogs work with their handlers to interact with people and offer emotional support and companionship. They are not individually trained to assist a specific person with disabilities but rather to bring comfort and joy to those they interact with.
