what does it take to become a Service Dog?
Any dog can train to become a service dog, as
long as the dog has the desirable character
traits for one. These dogs need to have good
temperament (good manners sociable), be of good
health, have good physical structure, and they
need to be intelligent and easily
trainable. Most of the dogs selected begin their
training as puppies. For the first year, the dog
is raised by a dedicated volunteer foster family
who trains the dog in basic dog obedience and
socialization, using the guidelines provided by
the Service Dog Organization.
