There are many different types of animals that work for us. There are three types of service animals that help the disabled. Guide animals assist the blind, hearing animals signal the deaf, and there are many other animals that help persons with other disabilities. Another way that animals work for us is by providing emotional support to those with mental health issues. These animals are usually prescribed by a doctor and they are called emotional support animals. One last way that we can see an animal working is in the military. There are many military working dogs that serve to protect us just as a soldier would, and it has been this way throughout history.…
There are common misconceptions and misunderstandings about assistance dogs due to the lack of awareness about the subject. Service dogs are protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Owners and handlers of these dogs are allowed to have their dog accompany them in public places that would otherwise ban dogs from entrance. However, therapy dogs are not protected under (ADA) and do not have special permission into public places. This is because they do not provide direct assistance to a disability for the owner or handler. Questions may arise about whether or not people are being honest about their pet being a service dog. However, one is not allowed to question the handler about their disability or ask them to have their dog…
Do you think that service dog trainers should be able to keep their dogs? Well, I do. I think this because a dog shouldn’t be used just for work they should get love and affection just like any other animal. But, some people may think different for many reasons. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but mine is that if the trainers want the dogs, they should be able to keep them.…
A Service Animal is any signal dog, guide dog, or other animal trained to perform tasks for individuals with disabilities. The main purposes of service animals are to guide, pick up, fetch, or act as a medic alert for people who are disabled. These animals also can “help a person with a physical or psychological disability to live more independent, healthier, happier, or more mobile life” (Persels). Service dogs are the most common service animal used to help the disabled, however with the rise of alternative service animals that just might change. There are many different types of alternative animals like snakes, miniature horses, chimpanzees, capuchin monkey, ferrets, pigs, goats, ponies and etc. Yet there are many difficulties that alternative service animals and owners face. People who have alternative animals should be concerned about the risk factors of owning non-traditional service animals.…
Service dogs are individually trained for a specific purpose. Many people that have a disability use service dogs. Disabled people that require them would not be able to be a part of mainstream America without them. Congress has felt the need to create laws regarding service dogs. Having a service dog can help many people. My service dog is useful in assisting me to keep my balance and mobility. Some dogs are needed for the blind in order to be their eyes, some detect seizures and some alert to allergies. Service dog laws exist, unfortunately law enforcement, business owners and the public are not always aware of the laws for service dogs. As a disabled individual, I am allowed to enter a business…

Imagine having your best friend, someone who is always there for you and understands you, taken away. Dogs have been on the battlefield throughout history. They began by attacking enemies, to today where they are like detectors finding bombs. No doubt about it, that military dogs save human lives on the battlefield, if it is locating the wounded or guarding camps, they are there for you. Soldiers and dog make an excellent team and become very close, from the first day of training to helping them if they are wounded. After risking their life for America, the veterans who worked with military dog should be able to adopt their best friend.…
People may react to the fear of allergies or fear of being close to service animals. According to the ADA, it is not an excuse to deny service to those accompanied by service animals (disability.mo.gov). Again, if the particular person is at the risk of a severe allergic reaction, it is the duty of the establishment to seek a solution to accommodate both customers. A well-trained staff can make a significant difference when aware of policies and procedure on how to handle those with disabilities and accompanied service animals (ada.gov). For instance, employees can be trained on ADA regulations and hotel policies on accommodating customers with service animals. In a situation where the public refuses service animals closer to them, the handler…
Service members engage with these specially bred, highly intelligent, low arousal puppies. In an 18-24 month service dog regimen the dog induces more than 90 commands while the veteran reestablishes into civilian life. When the training is finally complete, the service dog will then be placed with veterans with mobility-limiting injuries. Training begins about 3 weeks of age by staff and volunteers, helping to prepare these young dogs to become loving and loyal companions. These service dogs will then live the rest of their lives with and by their new owner. In order to fully train a service dog to be placed with a wounded warrior costs PPH 25,000$. As the dogs mature they will go through the final training step and evaluations. Some of the dogs will be placed with a veteran that has combat related injury while others will go on for “career changes” as therapy dogs, facility dogs to be used as demonstration, or be released to a loving…
Here we go! It’s time for our trip and I’m so excited. I scamper to the car because I remember what Jan has told me. Service dogs must do everything they are told. Even though I am only a puppy, I want to be a service dog like my uncle someday. Service dogs help people who cannot do important things. Some help people who cannot see well to travel safely. Others help people who cannot move well to manage things like opening doors or turning on lights. Service dogs do very important work for people with disabilities!…
Did you know that there's a law that a service dog is the only animal that can go in public places? I think that any service animal should be able to go to a public place as long as they’re helping someone. Monkeys are actually very smart and can help someone more than a dog can. Also other animals may keep someone calm,may help them carry something,and may even give someone exercise. But since this law is here no one is allowed to take any other animal but a dog to public places.…
