Service Dog Training
A service dog is a dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for a person with disabilities. A task must be related to the disability. It is also crucial for service dogs to be potty trained and under control. Dogs that have accidents or display unruly behavior can be asked to leave the premises.
