ADA Definition Service animals are animals that are
individually trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities such as guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling wheelchairs, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, or performing other special tasks. Service animals are working animals, not pets.

ADA “Fine Print” says Businesses may ask if an animal is a
service animal or ask what tasks the animal has been trained to perform, but cannot require special ID cards for the animal or ask about the person's disability.
Allergies and fear of animals are generally not valid reasons for denying access or refusing service to people with service animals.
Violators of the ADA can be required to pay money damages and penalties.

not pets. They are dogs with a job to do. Do not pet, distract, or interrupt a working dog. Always ask the owner before petting or talking to a non-working service dog.

Search and Rescue All humans, alive or
dead, constantly emit microscopic particles bearing human scent. Millions of these are airborne and are carried by the wind for considerable distances. The air-scenting SAR dog is trained to locate the scent of any human in a specific search area.

Dog Blood Donors Every year there are
numerous dogs that are rushed into the nearest animal emergency hospital because of an accident or injury. In order to survive, most of these dogs require a blood transfusion, and some dogs serve as blood donors.
