Here is a link to the hair product I referred to in the beginning of the video: lusbrands.ca/
I was just about to ask about the link and then I thought that maybe its at the end of this comment 😂😂
I have a friend who is trying to raise money for a service dog as she has Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome which causes her to pass our 4-5 times a day. She has limited mobility due to this and a service dog could help warn her before she passes out so she can sit down, as well as retrieve items for her so she doesn’t have to risk passing out. Do you have any foundations you know of that could help her in raising these funds?
I have a friend with a service dog for his PTSD and Social Anxiety. When we go to the store people ask for his dog's "Registration" and he gives them the official ADA law cards. "That's not registration" they shout but he's calm and says that's not a thing, explains it and we go about our business.
i have used this website for one of my resurch essays i had to do for school
Any quick updates about getting your semi automatic wheelchair option working again?
To many people with fake service dogs now there needs to be a system to fix this.
There already is a system, its just abled-bodied/neurotical people are taking advantage of a system for disabled people. Education is the only way to fix this.
I disagree. At least cracking down and shutting down places that sell fake papers would help.
Personnaly I think that there really should be some paperwork for the dogs, that proves that they have been trained and are necesseray... I think in America you can't even ask to prove that it's a service dog, am I right? Where I live in France, it's kind of the opposite, there are some papers that the dog needs to have in order to be accepted in public places, so no real problem of fake service dogs there, but it's almost too strict, it's extremely difficult to owner train your dog, and they are only 3 types of service dogs accepted: guide dogs, mobility service dogs and epilepsy service dogs...
I think there should be an official registry for service animals, like a real one. Your animal has to pass the AKC Good Citizen Test and prove that the animal does tasks to alleviate a disability.
@@terrasilvershade5678 and if someone can't afford that test and the paperwork. When has government made anything easy? Is going to the DMV easy? These laws where made a certain way for a reason. It was made so that disabled people who make and receive below the national income can still get the help they need. It was so you didn't have to pay over ten thousand dollars to have an organization legitimize you. I have a rare condition there is no way some half wit and a government organization is going to know what my condition is and how it effects me. Where do they draw the line of acceptable illnesses is it drawn at only the blind and seizure dogs exist or is it anyone who has a condition. If the latter is the case then you will still run into issues of lots of people having barely trained dogs. How many buildings do they build to hold these tests who do they hire. Creating a whole new system like that is a huge burden on the tax payer. What would actually do some good is making it illegal to issue fake service dog ids and it is already illegal to interfere with another team and bring an aggressive dog in public. People need to report it when it does happen. People do it because they know they can get away with it Scott free. If they had to pay a fine or serve jail time if something happened depending in severity then they would think twice the next time. It's up to businesses to know ada law which lots of them don't. And up to law enforcement to know the law as well which I can tell you lots of them don't.
“Your dog cannot be in public if it’s a danger to others - whether it helps you or not.”
Yes. Exactly this. The help that a dog provides you does not override everyone else’s right to safety. Service dogs are not only trained to help their owner, they must ALSO be trained to not harass or harm other people and animals. If they are incapable of controlling themselves around other people or animals, I’m sorry, but you cannot bring them out in public.
It should be true for every dog (and even cats etc...)! But interestingly, some people find the suggestions that they should train their pets offensive. Just look at the all the 'cute animal' videos trending on facebook. Half of them are just badly behaved and potentially dangerous and there are entire comment sections protecting and glamorizing said behaviour. I've had people loudly pity my pet dogs for having to be obedient....
If your dog is not a service dog you can still take them out. My dogs are dog aggressive, I take them out all the time. The difference is im not an idiot and keep my dogs close to me and always have my guard up, we see a dog we walk a different route.. you're not going to try to tell people like me with rescue dogs that they cant go out because they are scared of other dogs
@@brianamayer9105 The difference is that you can nit bring your dogs into restaurants, businesses and theme parks. Your dogs have no public access rights.
I completely understand people have also abused the emotional support dog system and it sucks because I need a esa dog and she's in training from a esa handler k still have to tell people she's working but thank you for asking and we walk away my dog will just sit there so she's going threw her training well
@@abbeyawesome1012 an ESA is NOT a service animal, nor is there such a thing as an ESA trainer.
You either have a service animal trained to mitigate your disability or you have a comfort animal that doesn't have public access rights with you and you are breaking ADA law.
I have a dog that is a little over a year old. I am diabetic and he will alert me when I have dangerously low glucose levels. I never trained him to do it, it's somehow natural to him. However, I would never try to pass him off as a service dog. He knows basic training commands but is not disciplined enough to be in a large public environment. He doesn't attack, but he gets very excited by other people, dogs, birds, falling leaves, sticks and even my own shoes. So, while he could be a service dog to alert on my glucose, he lacks the training in everything else.
I think you should train him so he can go with you everywhere. I understand that low blood sugar can be life-threatening for some people.
Yeah if you don't have a constant blood sugar tracker it's hard sometimes to know when your going to get a low. Dogs are great in that instance I have pots like Jaquie and it can be hard to tell when I'm going to pass out. I plan on training a service dog soon to help me around the house. I don't need too much help outside because I never go out alone I'm always with my boyfriend who is a great service human 🤣. I use him for balance and he catches me if I fall. We'll be moving to a small town soon anyways where I will feel much safer. My biggest fear is fainting in a dangerous place like a parking lot or near someone who is an opportunist might try to rob me or take me and pretend to be a friend so he can carry me out the store. The latter one almost happened to me but I was awake but weak. I carry as a disabled person for this reason.
I have diabetes too. I got it at the age of 5 , and i have a service dog. She tore her ACL (i think thats what its called P^P)
So we stopped training, bad decision but we are going to start again.
But I know how bad low blood sugars are, even if they arent dangerous, you feel miserable, and it can be very dangerous, i once had a blood sugar at 20’s, and i didnt even wake up.
Having a service dog with you is hard, but is also good.
Its a lot of work and a lot of struggles, and you basically are baby sitting something 24/7, but i find them comforting too when your low or high.
The dog is a little over a year, so getting him used to people, dogs, and other distractions is possible.
Taking him or her to parks, pet stores, and other public & pet friendly places.
My dog used to have a fear of men, so little hope, but now people are her favorite thing. So its possible to help your dog, and all the hard workays off.
Hopefully this wasnt to cringey.
I wish you the best of luck.
If you ever want training videos, i reccomend Zak Georges dog training revolution.
If this was cringey sorry. Im not as educated as i sound, but ik how being diabetic is and having a service pup is so much help.
And you are amazing for recognizing that he isn’t trained. You would be surprised at how many people consider basic obedience “ well trained”
@@sammyifly so true, I once had an incident where a woman was trying to bring an ESA into a waiting room, and it was barking, pulling, towards my dog. I was sort of cornered so I just yelled across the room "I'm sorry, but only trained service animals are allowed in here." And as she picks up the dog, forcing it's mouth closed with her hand to try to stop the barking, she says "She is trained." I responded across the room "Well apparently not trained enough." Thankfully, that embarrassed her pretty bad (it was packed and everyone was watching it)and she left, then a few minutes later came back, and was huggin the dog in her lap trying to comfort it and keep it quiet. I had to get the staff to boot her.
I'll never understand why anyone would want to bring a pet anywhere non-pet friendly. My service dog is excellent, very rarely gives me any trouble, follows my every command, ect (basically a redundancy, lol. Of course he behaves. He's a service dog) But I still wish I could hop in the car and just go, I wish I didn't have to preplan fights dealing with paperwork, wish I didn't have to hear people loudly "Aww!"ing at us every time I walk down a hallway, wish I didn't have to answer strangers questions over and over "What kind of dog is he?" "Oh my god, he's wearing shoes. Did you know your dog is wearing shoes?" "So who are you training him for?" "How do I get a service dog?" "I have a service dog too, it only cost me $60 online." "Can I pet your dog? No?! Why would you bring a dog in here if you didn't want people to pet it??" "What's wrong with you?" "Why can't I pet him?" "Where's his paperwork? You don't have any!? Well, then you can eat somewhere else then" "Excuse me... Are you blind?" 🙄🙄 Why in the hell would anyone WANT to bring a dog with them everywhere, especially a poorly trained pet dog? I only take my dog because I absolutely need him, want ain't got nothing to do with it. People who hurt our right to function as normally as possible through use of our service animals just they want to take a pet with them when it's convenient for them (forget about convenience for anyone else that has to deal with them), they make me sick.
Here in Canada, your dog has to pass a standardized public access test and then you get a vest, wallet card, collar tag, certificate and info pamphlet. And then staff can ask to see your certification and you just quickly show them your wallet card, very similar process/thinking as a drivers licence. Do you think this is a good is a good system and should be implemented in the US?
Do you live in Ontario? In Ontario you only need doctors note.
Im in Saskatchewan and im looking into one. Talked to a trainer he did not metion anything about if we get anything if the team passes the test
I think that is wonderful and necessary. It eliminates so many issues!
This would not work. Because we don't have the taxes to support the cost like Canada does. And disabled people are generally too poor to afford the cost of that, hence our federal law. What we need is better education on service dogs, service dog law, and the rights of business.
Plus, we already have a ton of existing scam sites for registration when it's not lawful in the US to ask for papers.
As a cast member it drives us crazy when service dogs are not actual service dogs. Thank YOU for responding to us as well to help you and others
Who else would love to hear the story about the restaurant calling the police over not providing paperwork?
One day soon, promise!
I remember you actually sharing it in a past video but that was a long time ago, I don’t know which video it was
Beyblade Burst Turbo except there aren’t “papers” for service dogs.
@Beyblade Burst Turbo What papers?
The only "papers" are letters from your healthcare team when you're traveling on a plane
I remember seeing that video
Also - thank you for explaining the difference between a SERVICE dog and an Emotional support animal. Too many people think that they are the same thing.
Please report this straight to guest services and begin to pester them. Please, as a Disney worker with a service dog all the fakes we see on a day to day is increasing at a scary rate. I’ve been attacked twice while with family and my service dog in training at the parks. Even Disney springs
RaisingRipley it has gotten totally out of hand. Saw a dog in one of those mesh carriers a few weeks ago. It went by several times during the day. Each time I saw it, it was being carried by a different family member. Hard to perform a task when it is in a carrier and not even being carried by the “disabled” person.
If you were "attacked" you would file a police report. Reporting guests and "pestering" employees.... are you out of your mind? They are following the law they don't make the law. Contact your lawmakers etc etc if you want to see change, not Disney employees. They legally can only ask two questions if the person answers yes they cannot do anything. They most likely would not ask anyone to leave even if it was a "fake" service animal as there is no legal protocol for if people are lying about a service dog nor is their company policy. If you were attacked that's a different story however you still would not "pester" cast members you would call the police.
jct6808 as an employee yes I have filled out many police reports. Disney can remove anyone with a service dog if the dog is being aggressive and out of hand. I say to pester them because Disney had let out a statement months back saying you need to bring proof of the animal being a service dog, which there is none. And I’m most cases they do not ask people when they come into the parks.
Edit: I’m talking about guest services and Disney security. Police can’t do much until security is called first.
@@jct6808 except that's unacceptable public behavior, and a business can ask a team thst is causing an actual problem to leave. dogs with unacceptable public behavior are not dogs who have good public access skills.
I've never heard of a real service dog attacking anyone.
Robert Pirlot real ones don’t
I agree. A real service dog won’t attack. I actually was in training with a friend of mines dog that was being trained as a service/emotional support dog to go to nursing homes. He would always listen to my friends commands. Never anyone else
EVER!!!!
I actually did a speech on service dogs last semester after a girl had a "service dog" and it bit someone. It surprised me how many questions my classmates had for me because a lot of things that you talked about they truly did not know! Educating others is a great thing!
Dog trainer or of 30 years. Im fed up with pets being passed off as service dogs in public. Its time to pass new laws to protect Harlow.
jaye jaye I agree. It needs to stop. I don’t have a service dog but I support all service dogs in this. I honestly wish people would stop trying to pass off pets as service dogs.
I’m glad you spoke up. My aunt got fake paperwork so she could take her dog on the plane for free instead of having to pay for the dog as a pet. It upsets me to no end and she just doesn’t get why this is wrong. I tried to discuss this with her but it didn’t go well. I’m sorry this happened to you!
gatorashley10 My cousin, who I love very much, did something similar. Then her dog freaked out, pooped, jumped up on their laps (golden lab), and was generally a huge nuisance to the other people on the flight. I didn’t get a chance to speak to her before her flight, but I think the results of her actions effectively punished her abusing the system.
Happened to us too!!! My baby brother was assaulted in his stroller by a "service dog" in Disney once. We had his leftover chicken nuggets from a restaurant in the side pocket and the dog bit the stroller and started dragging it off trying to get the food. I nearly had to kick the dog to get it to let go. I'm so thankful I didn't have my own SDiT with me for that trip because I'd be terrified if that dog went after him. I don't bring him with me when we go to Disney yet, he's not bullet proof on enough of his training for me to feel comfortable. I'd hate to overwhelm him and have him burn out. He's solid when out in the general public, but places like Disney are a whole other ball game. People NEED to stop this ridiculousness. It's not ok. Don't take your pets in public, people! Even if it is a SD or SDiT, if it ISN'T READY to handle a WILD place like DISNEY don't bring it! Not that hard! lol
there may need to be a requirement for the real service dogs to wear muzzles.
I have a corgi that I walk every day I'm a wheelchair user he is not a service animal he is my pet I don't take him in the store with me because people abuse the system with service animals people ask me why I don't bring him in to places with me I tell them he isn't a service animal he is my pet
marvin your service dog didn't have papers, what the school actually got was a paper from your doctor or prescriber stating the service dog was necessary, prescribed, and that it was the correct dog and not a different one :)
Might be worth getting a go pro and wheelchair mount for Disney! In case it happens again you can catch it on film!
That is an awesome idea for anyone in a mobility device....I have seen people filming (not at Disney) in an ECV and almost run into others and most funny a pole. OY! (i know horrible for laughing but dude, look where you are going not at a screen) Plus having your hands free and a mount it would be great so you can do what you need to without having to worry about dropping a camera
My previous service dog developed some pretty bad dog aggression and I made the hard decision of washing her. Other people didn’t agree because she wasn’t a danger to people but i would NEVER put another team at risk. I’m glad i washed her because i would never want anything to happen to another team.
Where do washed dogs go after being 'washed'?
That’s sad, but I really appreciate you recognizing the potential problems and choosing to do the right thing!
Washed service dogs have different options. If they are program dogs, they are usually returned to the program to be given to the people who raised it as a puppy. Owner trainers will either keep the dog for the rest of its life or find it a new home, usually with a close family member or friend, especially if the dog will not welcome or be comfortable with the idea of a new dog or puppy being brought into its home. Just because we have to wash the dog doesn't mean it just gets dumped in a shelter. As owner trainers and service dog handlers in general, we have to have backup plans for the time when our dogs wash or retire. Many of us can't work and so affording multiple dogs becomes impossible, especially when we have to dedicate a ton of money towards training a replacement.
For my service dog, I've got about 5-7 years to continue working with him until he retires, if I get lucky enough that he doesn't wash or have to retire early due to an unforeseen health issue not caused by his genetics. He will always be with me, no matter what. He's my best friend, my lifeline, and my world, even when he's not working as a service dog. When he retires, I will either have another puppy trained by me to take over for him or I will not get another service dog for awhile, depending on my health and where I am at in my life.
I am sorry you had to deal with that. My SDIT was attacked twice by the same dog at the same store. Now he is a little reactive when dogs are reactive. He gets refocused on me quickly, but once in a while he will give a little bark and I have to refocus him.I have to retrain him or he will be washed. Through no fault of his own. I am so upset because I had to train him for a year and I may have to start all over with a new dog! This is why reactive dogs should not be in public! Service dogs go through two years of training. If a stupid persons dog ruins another’s teams real service dog...they lose their life line for two years! A service dog costs $20,000 to $40,000.
We had a local restaurant refuse our service dog teams because we didn’t have certification. They even have it on their door! A service dog certificate is required! We have had a local service dog organization go and speak with them and show them ADA’s laws and they called the cops on them!
I know you shouldn’t have to, but just get a doctor’s note. My sister has a mobility and medical alert dog so no one ever questions her ever (because it’s very obvious she’s disabled) but we have one just in case. I always hear the horror stories so I want to be prepared. Calling the police and starting a scandal is just way too much.
It's no where near the same but my Labrador is really perceptive and defensive of me. I was almost attacked over 6 years ago by a dog tied up on a long lead outside a shop, it had on a loose collar and no muzzle despite being in an area with lots of children and dogs on a busy road. She refused to socialise with similar looking dogs for months and pushed me away from them. She's still a little touchy about some breeds after we've been aggressively barked at.
So glad Disney was understanding about the situation. It always frustrates me when business owners dont know the laws for service animals. I used to work at Kohls and the amount of time an unruly dog came in barking at everyone was too much. I would tell my manager and they would just say "there's nothing we can do". Tried informing them of the 2 questions they could ask and that they could ask them to leave for being unruly but they didn't believe me. 😒
Does anybody know if it says on the ADA cards that businesses can ask unruly service dogs/ fake service dogs to leave the premises? And an explanation that they are dangerous for other service dog teams?
If not, that might be helpful to add so that businesses don't have to feel fear of being sued or something for asking one to leave because they are ignorant of the laws.
I mean, thy should know them, but since many don't, if it was on the "quick study" ADA cards, hopefully more businesses would learn faster and be more familiar with their own rights as business owners as well as the rights of the SD teams.
It just seems backwards that some businesses hound real teams for papers while at the same time let fake/ mal-behaved teams (perhaps with papers even, lol,) act unruly and are afraid to kick them out.
So maybe putting their right to kick out unruly dogs on the card as well would be a good idea (if it's not already on there.) Just a thought. Oh yah, and those fake registries need to be dismantled and get a hefty fine as well. They are worse than puppy mills in a way. JMO
Oh and they could even make ADA cards for businesses (with their rights on it) to hand to those fake/ unruly teams as they are kicking them out. 😁
Kirsten Courtney from what I’ve experienced even if the dog is unruly places don’t want to kick them out/ ban them because they are afraid of being sued if it’s a legit service dogs. We’re dealing with this issue at my college, there’s a dog aggressive “service” dog and the dog has almost bitten my guy twice and everyone on campus is playing the pass the buck game.
As a fellow SD handler, thank you for being so clear, knowledgeable, and precise on the laws, you were so thoughtful and understanding in your explanation and did a great job advocating for all types of service dogs and their handlers! :D
My SD and I had a fake service dog attempt to bite us just last night in Disney Springs. Disney Security and Orange county sherrif's office handled it flawlessly but we had to leave afterwards due to symptom flare ups. I had never been in Disney springs alone before and don't plan on it any time soon. So frustrating. In the end I was so proud of Sadie for flawless alerts even after the incident and especially when I started dissociating. She is still very much in training so I was so nervous she would react but she only let out a tiny whimper and the leave it command got her attention back on me. Proud proud mama here.
I SAW YOU GUYS AT EPCOT! You were talking with a cast member and seemed a little frazzled so I didn’t want to bother you but much love to you three ❤️
Thank you for respecting their space!
Thank you so much for explaining the laws for service dogs. As someone that works in the public it really helps to understand the differences. I love your hair, it is so cute. You look like you are feeling better, I'm so glad.
Thank you! In libraries we are faced with situations that put us in awkward situations with service animals. It is hard to get good, solid, information that helps us with the approach aspect- how to inquire without insulting. I have shared this and hope that lots of people see this!
Your husband is amazing for just picking up and going ❤️ I’m so sorry that happened , but turning it around... SO PROUD OF YOU GUYS AND HIPPO!👏💪 Also Disney.
I live in Sweden and here a services dog must have id-card to be a service dog.
I’m so glad the treatment is helping you and I hope you,hippo and judd have a lovely relaxing rest of today ❤️

I love your videos. My golden retriever service dog Denver passed away a little while ago. He began having seizures a few months after I got him and was diagnosed with epilepsy. Under the right meds he became even better than his old self. The company I got him from told me he could no longer be an assistant dog even though the vet sent a note saying otherwise. I continued taking him everywhere until he became blind. You would never have known he was though. He knew where everything was inside and outside and only ran into things when super excited. He made my life so much better. I love him and he will always be my little man.
Thanks so much for speaking out about this! I have a 3 yr old xl American bully trained for mobility and physical assist and I cannot say enough how awful it is to go through these types of situations. Our team and my friends team have both been attacked by random teams during public access training. It is such a helpless feeling to be subjected to and I am so sorry you’ve had to go through it now as well... but so grateful neither you or Harlow were seriously injured. The public desperately needs awareness of the dangers of these issues and the serious damage that could be done. We need more teams like you guys banding together to spread awareness. Thanks for always being such an amazing advocate for yourself and others ❤️❤️❤️
I'm so sorry this happened to you Jaquie. Autoimmune issues is enough for a person to deal with (I know, I deal with it every day...). I'm glad you and your dog are OK. You take care and I look forward to your updates.
I've actually seen on a Facebook mom swap page where someone had a pitbull that they were told wasnt allowed at this new apartment that this woman wanted, so she was given the advice to get this fake service dog paperwork because then the establishment couldn't refuse to rent to her because of the breed of her animal! I was absolutely shocked! Glad you're ok, Jaquie!
I just went to Disney a couple weeks ago. In EPCOT I saw a lady with her service dog, but this dog was never in heel. It pulled her everywhere. It seemed that this was an undisciplined pet and not a service dog.
There is no ada rule that a service dog must heel.
I think the point was the out of control behavior of the dog.
Under ADA the dog must be under control.
ELI ICD ya sure and some people chose not to but having the dog dragging its handler around and pulling on the leash is not acceptable behavior
Maybe not, but if the dog was pulling its handler everywhere, the dog was in command and not the handler so the dog obviously wasn’t trained.
being an ex Disney and Seaworld cast member, I saw a lot of fake service dogs. The only thing I could do was to tell a member or a coordinator. It was very annoying and saddening for actually service dogs. I sorry that happened to you.
I think service dog or not all need training if they want to take them out..so they can be obedient in public..mine is still 2 weeks and he is not a service dog but I am still going to train him..
I really love how you educate in a professional way. It's why I continue to watch your videos because you don't come off as abrasive . I totally understand wanting to educate people and other handlers and I really appreciate how you go about it. It is people like you who have helped me be more comfortable educating others with my own service dog. Thank you so much Jaquie
Both my wife and I were just in Disney a couple weeks ago and we were taken back by so many of the dogs who obviously were not true service dogs. It was very upsetting. And it bothered us that we really couldn't say anything and people abuse the use of the system. One dog was so scared and pulling every where, the dog was missing hair and was pooping in the middle of the park and the people didn't pick it up. Another dog was pulling and jumping on other guests and then when we saw them again the dog was laying in the middle of the walk way and the owners kept yanking at the dog to move. NOT COOL. the other one was a chihuahua that the person brought onto Soarin and being held inside their jacket. we were so upset of how it makes it look to those who really need the use of service dogs. I am so glad you brought this up. we wish we could have said something without pissing these types of people off.
Main Street Boxer I’m glad to know Disney takes it seriously
Thank you for spreading awareness. I am so sorry you had to go through this experience. I have a seizure awareness service dog, and I have been threatened to have police called on me because I didn't have documentation on me to show that she was a service dog. All I had was her vest, and my paperwork in my wallet showing I have seizures, which I shouldn't have to prove I have a disability. I decided to just leave and not let it ruin my day. I wish more people were aware of the disability, and service animal laws.
I'm sorry that you went through this and truly hope that this doesn't happen again. Its scary to have the other "teams" dog legit or not should never have went after Harlow hurting you and traumatizing you. Its great that Harlow listened and stayed to her training. That is why because the laws are not set for owner training in Ontario Canada I am not going to even attempt owner training as I want to have a totally good well mannered service dog when and if I get one. I've been attacked by a dog and would never put someone else in danger that way.
Thank you for saying something without causing a scene, drama, or harassing the other handler/owner. I've had so much anxiety with training my boy, because I'm terrified if he barks someone with a SD won't be okay with him being a SDIT.
I don't have a service dog but I still make sure I know a decent amount of the laws because where I live people abuse that law. Every other day I see "service dogs" in shopping carts clearly not paying attention to the handler in Wal-Mart. But there's rare times I see a legit service dog and make sure I atleast remember the two questions companies are allowed to ask (I don't know why I do this but oh well, I'm weird)
You don't know the difference between a fake and a legitimate service dog simply based on behavior or what the handler does with the dog.
If the dog is trained to mitigate the handler's disability, it's a service dog. That's it. No amount of "putting it in shopping carts" or "not focusing on the handler" is going to prove it's not there to mitigate the handler's disability.
That is so sad that people abuse having a service dog. I'm so glad that service dogs are out there for people who need them. I wish there were more resources to education the public and businesses about service dogs.
Thank you so much for explaining service dogs and how to ask the appropriate questions!! Very helpful!!!
Ooh I also really appreciate you speaking about PSDs. People really don’t understand the difference between ESAs and PSDs. My (now washed) SD was task trained to alert me to panic attacks and provide distracting stimuli (by licking, head butting, and pawing) while I had them, as well as finding my mom, and we almost got him to figure out leading me to exits. His tasks gave me my life back, I was finally able to go pick out in public “alone” (without humans). But, alas, he just ended up not being cut out for service work due to his anxiety. I’m so excited to start again though and regain independence, you’re a huge inspiration for me!
Hi Jaquie, Your hair looks great. Looking forward to the hair tutorial. I noticed your pink ring. Ever since I have been watching you, I have been liking pink more. Harlow is so sweet. That's terrible that the dog bit you.
Lynn Amidon this is a broken set of sentences
Your manners are broken.
I loved this video! You laid out the situation clearly and answered a number of questions I hadn’t realized I had. You and Harlow are shining examples of what a service dog team can be. Love to all three of you and may things always be as sunny as you.
We are still training my son’s Service Dog, luckily he wasn’t with us the other day. We saw another “team” the other day at the store and the Husky was dragging the guy around, at one point the man put his dog’s leash down and the dog just walked away from him, it completely left the aisle without him. I was in shock and so thankful no other teams or people got hurt because of his negligence
I know some people have Husky Service dogs, but I've heard a dog trainer say they are one of the hardest breeds to train so it seems like they wouldn't be a great choice for service dogs. (I just mean other breeds are probably much easier so why take the risk or go to all the extra trouble?)
@@kirstencourtney8792 I had a Dalmation SD OMG never again. I used him for three years and had to get another. He was the most stubborn hard headed sassiest dog i ever had !! My current SD is 14 a French Mastiff with a very rare dry mouth. Luckily we are pretty much house bound because he cant walk good any more. He still gets up every time i move and does his tasks but the old boy should be retired. I dont make him work. Its his life. I have people helping 24/7 now. But hes so damn faithful. He gets CBD 2.3%/ THC 5% three times a day for his hips. Hes still happy and occasionally plays with his brother. But we are monitoring him for quality of life.I have 5 dogs but when hes gone there will be such a huge void. Hes the best SD Ive had. And I have had 4 over the years
Jaquie thank you for all your helpful information on service dogs. I knew not to do anything to distract them, but this is a whole new level. Having read most of the comments, I feel like maybe we should follow Canada’s regulations. Hate the thought of it making it harder on you guys but you have every right to feel safe from other dogs whenever you are out with your dog.
Your info and details about the law is correct, and well stated. I have a service/guide dog Oliver. Just the other day I had a retriever that the handler could not control and it kept leaving the handler and bothering my guide dog. So I had to stay put 2 times while she got her dog. And I could not move or shop without my dogs help. So it stopped my day. It is a problem sometimes for sure! I did a video about invisible disability and assumptive hostility I recieved in winter 2017 on my youtube. Spreading awareness is so important. I am SO glad you are ok. I am so sorry that happened. Our dogs are our life line and so scary when crazy stuff happens ....
I love when you explain things, you're so dern informative!!
Best explanation of service dogs and being task trained. So difficult to be out in public and see a "service dog" vest yet the dog is aggressively acting out. And doesnt appear to be corrected for the behavior. Warms my heart to see a service dog basically ignoring all but their handler/trainer when they are on duty. Thanks for bringing more awareness. P.S. Great to see you enjoying food so much more now!
This is sad how this just keeps happening 😞
I agree. I have been lucky with to have never been physically touched by an aggressive team until now, and even luckier that the dog did not come into contact with Harlow. But we have run into our fair share of aggressive dogs. It can ruin a legitimate service dog's training and lead to injuries. Hoping that people will understand how detrimental the consequences can be.
@@ChronicallyJaquie I'm wondering if the dog was still in the training phase. I used to be a People Greeter at Walmart, and I once had a handler come in with a trainer and a puppy in training to be a service dog in order to challenge the puppy with distractions. The puppy got overwhelmed, so, they left, and there was no shame in doing so. It was better than turning a bad experience into a traumatic one that could have made him aggressive by forcing him to stay in an environment that he wasn't ready for yet.
Actually, you can register a service dog with your county in the US. A lot of people don't know that. Then you're attesting that your dog is a service dog. Falsification is punishable by law. That's as far as you can legally register. The ADA is protecting people's private health information so they're stuck. I know if someone gets too pushy about my step children's, my family or my own private health information, I'm going to a manager or corporate. That's why the ADA is stuck. A service dog is not supposed to be aggressive. That's a no no. The other team should have seen that coming and nipped it in the bud before it began. Even if the dog is in training. There's a vicious dog at Disneyland that the handler has no control over. We've seen him twice. Once he almost attacked me. He knocked down a display. No one questioned the handler. He did it again. We ignored both times and walked away. We saw them again a few weeks ago and he was dragging, not leading, his handler aaround traffic. It was sad. We got out of the was as soon as we spotted them. Again. Sorry this happened to you.
I have a guide dog becaues I’m blind and this happened only once to me at a sushi restaurant here in California they told me if I had paper work for him but I told them you can’t ask me for paperwork because it’s against ADA law
Dina Hakim i have a question! not in an mean way but just curiosity, when your blind how do you type on social media, search which video to watch? etc you have a helper to read you the comments or reply’s etc? or how does it work?
In case they don’t feel like replying, a lot of phones and computers can have software installed to read out stuff on the screen and type out voice commands. I wouldn’t be surprised also if there is blind-friendly keyboards.
Han MaeRi from my own understanding, they have their phones for immediate speak to text and they get special keyboards/computers for that. It’s interesting
I don't how Dina does things, but I once worked with a computer programmer who was blind. I was curious and he explained how his special computer screen and system worked. He does everything through a Braille keyboard and hearing. The system "reads" the code back to him, he listens and edits as necessary. It was really amazing how his other senses took over. He was writing code pretty fast.
Han MaeRi watch Shane Dawson’s series on molly burke. She explains what being blind is like. She also has her own RUclips channel
people also need to realize that even if the dog is tasked trained for your disability the dog still needs to have manners. leaving other teams alone, not begging etc. i know of people who have ran into another team, the dog was taskly trained for their disabilities, but when the dog saw the other service dog it went crazy. the handler brushes it off as "its their only set back"
Service dogs act like that but only when they’re off-duty not while in public.
Jaquie... I freaking love you and harlow. As a dog trainer with petsmart I see so many people try to pass off a emotional support animal as a service dog every day. I get so frustrated and I have been told that the goverment is looking into regulate and have identification for service,therapy,and emotional support. Unsure how accurate that information is but I honestly and truly hope they do.
I self trained. My SD is for psychiatric and glucose. I live in Tampa and took her to Disney with me. Seeing a dog that is untrained and aggressive would scare me. If a larger dog attacks my dog she's a gonner as she is a small breed. I can't stress enough that if the handler can't control thier dog, it is not a service dog, even if performs a medical service by law it cannot be a threat to others or misbehave.
Jaquie - the change in your moral is amazing - keep going and make the sky your limit!! GO GIRL!!
I am glad that you were ok, and Harlow was not harmed. Hippo is such a good baby. I hope that nobody else gets hurt.
So sorry to hear this happened. I have a friend who goes to Disney often with her service dog. Like Harlow, her dog is trained for tasks and to alert. So glad neither of you were hurt!
I'm currently training my dog to become a psychiatric dog and low blood sugar alert. I've been doing this for a couple months and still refuse to take her into a public place where the possibilities of dogs could be found. I know how well she behaves and trained, but others may not. I'm always scared that one service dog just would not like her and all hell breaks loose. You never know how ones animal will react or even a person to a dog. It's honestly so scary to think that my dog who supports me emotionally, could get in a fight from a misbehaved dog and end up hurting me emotionally instead of helping.
Oh my! I am so glad that you and Harlow are ok. I'm so sorry that you both had that experience. I also hope the owner made a good decision and left or that security found them and had a serious talk with them. Hopefully that team will learn by your example and by how Harlow handled the situation. Again, I am so thankful that you and Harlow are ok.
Also, thank you for taking the time to talk about this situation and for giving us all of that information. I really appreciate the fact that you take time to explain misconceptions vs. fact. It is very helpful and I'm thankful that you take the time to get the word out! Thank you!
Believe me, the Cast Members get frustrated at guests who abuse the system too. They can tell when a dog isn't one or at least one who isn't well trained and it's frustrating because there is very little they can do about it. Thank You for letting Disney know about this. It will help!
This is why my previous SD never made the cut as a “real” SD: he was simply too reactive to be safe in public places. He was wonderful with me at home, helped me in many ways. But I never took him into stores , or to events, any place where he would have had to pass other dogs was a no. My new dog is receiving intense training and already it’s paying off: she shows great self control and is always focused on me. I am so sorry you had to deal with this. Harlow is a champ!
People who pass off pets as service animals make it so much harder on people like you who truly need and depend on their service animals daily. I’m so sorry that happened to you. Kudos to Harlow for doing what a real service dog does.
I remember watching this when it came out...
Thank you for being such a great source education and spreading awareness
Thank you for this explanation. I have a dog who can detect my seizures and strokes but she is extremely dog shy. Shes also overly protective of me. I will not take her into public situations but her tasks to save my life and Alert when we're home are helpful. All in all she's the perfect pet.
I work at Starbucks. And people bring their dogs in and it bothers me so so much excuses real service animals get attacked for no reason
Waw thank you so much for talking about service dogs and ESAs a lot of people need to know the differences. I am blind and have a GD who is well behaved, and another little dog barked at my dog when I went to a restaurant. Thanks for raising awareness of the issues that us handlers face daily.
I just got my dogs new vest. I have been working on owner training for a while now and I decided it was time for her to get a real vest. Don’t worry I will continue training her for a few months maybe years before she is able to go in public. 🙂I am very exited and I was wondering if anybody had tips!
I highly recommend Canine Good Citizen. If your dog can pass that class you will have no problem in public. The dogs must pass all parts to become certified. There is a training part and then a testing part.There is a fee but many recreation centers offer this program at a reduced fee.
A Canine Good Citizen test doesn't not determine whether a dog can handle public outings. It is a test set for all pet dogs on how they should behave during certain situations, but it is no way a good way to determine public access or a service dog's level of training. I've seen horribly dog aggressive dogs pass the CGC test and I've seen 6 month old puppies pass. It's in no way close to the amount of training a service dog needs before it goes out in public, nor should it be used to determine if a pet dog is ready to go out in public. Public is an extremely chaotic and stressful environment.
You should start public access when you are 100% sure your dog can and will behave in public for short periods of time. If your state law does not specifically grant you (if they say "trainer" as most states do and not "owner trainer", that's a no) access with your service dog in training, you stick to pet friendly places. And even if your state does grant you access, still stick to pet friendly places to start. Start short, keep it short and very slowly work up to longer periods of time and then begin adding in the focus/ignore command and then task commands and whatever else you need your dog to do. Then once your dog is 100% comfortable and confident in pet friendly places, you move on to non-dog friendly public places, doing the exact same training pattern you did with pet friendly places. Only if your state gives you public access rights with your service dog in training. If they don't, stick to pet friendly places until your dog is a fully trained service dog.
First time viewer!
Ive seen this so many times at Disney parks. There was a woman with a tiny dog at magic kingdom and her dog was growling at people while she was in line for rides 🙄 This is just makes my blood boil that so many people have fake service animals or fake emotional support animals just to have their dogs with them. My dog is going through crazy training with a personal trainer to be my emotional support dog to help with my anxiety and panic attacks and how to detect them. I’m really sorry this has happened to you and thank you for bringing awareness to this situation 💟🙏🏼
I am so excited to come across your videos. My 6 year old also has multiple disabilities including EDS. Thank you for these videos. We will be getting her a service dog very soon.
One you did not mention were hearing dogs.
The dog woke the couple and kept running to the babies room. When the couple got to the room, they discovered the child's head caught between the cribs bars. The Fire Department arrived, helped the couple and stated that had they not had that dog, their child could have died.
KUDOS TO THE DOG!!!!!
It's people like you that make RUclips great. You're a teacher, a motivational speaker and just a wonderful source for many different topics. I subscribe to many different channels and yours is by far my favorite. You also just happen to be a good person. Thank you for putting these great quality videos out there!👍👍😃
Your dog is such a little angel! She’s so darn cute
Thank you for sharing the truth about Service Dogs in the US. I've retired my SD for public access because I rarely go out these days and his training is super rusty at this point. If I get to the point that I can get out again, I may retrain him, but he's going to be 6 in April and it might not be worth it due to his age. But he is great for my needs at home.
I have been watching your videos for about a year. My daughter has cerebral palsy . She ants a service dog. Your info has been very helpful to us. Thank you so much. Mary and Jamie.
I haven’t been watching for a while. I am amazed to see the changes in you, Jacquie. You’re like a new person!
Thank you for keeping the health of your service dog in mind. I was at Disney a few times last year and saw so many service dogs out in 90 degree weather without boots or cooling blankets on. The dogs were also showing signs of over heating :(
Thanks for sharing. This was super helpful in teaching me discernment between emotional support and trained task service. I work in customer service/hospitality and I've always wondered the difference. Too often I've felt that the privilege of a service animal was being abused, which in turn harms those who really do need the animals that serve them. I'm sorry this happened to you, and kudos for spreading awareness!
While working at Disney's Epcot, I was nearly attacked by a fake service dog. I was walking past a bench when a chihuahua in a bag started aggressively barking at me and baring it's teeth. When the owner tried to calm it down, the dog turned around and bit the owner. This is particularly frustrating because I have a service dog myself who is a pug (at the moment helping me inside my home but training to be public access). People see others trying to pass off their little dogs as service dogs and assume ALL small dogs can't be service dogs! When I went to Disney to train with my dog, I had someone ask me on the monorail if my dog was really a service dog and what service it could possibly provide, with it being so small.
And this is why I love Disney World.
But honestly. I hate people who fake service dogs. I have friends who have Service dogs and I've learned so much about what to do. And what not to do around them.
Maria Robotnik Disney is cracking down, which they should.
We need more resources and laws possibly to stop situations like these. Being a handler it’s very frustrating to see fake service dogs almost everywhere. The websites (to “certify” your PET) are probably the most frustrating. 😤🙄😪
I’m actually training my puppy to be a SD when she’s older. She will be a PSD. And alert to taking my meds, panic attacks or signs of stress, calming me during ‘anger attacks’ (moments when I can’t ground myself of my anger issues), and unsteadiness. It really is a shame that people are taking pets in public and ruining the fact that some people actually need a SD. Sorry about what happened but I’m glad y’all are safe and the new dr is working out. Love from TX ❤️❤️
I love how much knowledge you have on all of this. Thank you for being an advocate!
I totally agree that someone’s need for a service dog does not override the public’s right to safety. I have a psychiatric service dog that is well trained but I do not bring him out in public because he can get territorial with other male dogs. We are getting him training to see if we can help with the issue, but I still will never feel comfortable putting other service animals at risk just to have mine with me. It’s a shame that so many other people are selfish and ignore the risk their animal poses
A similar thing happened to my mom while she was my walking my dog, who is a pet. So, me and two of my friends were sitting at an outside seating area on my college campus. Since it is an open campus, dogs are allowed in the outdoor areas. My mom was coming towards us with my dog, when a team walked by them. The service dog went absolutely ballistic and was making very loud, very aggressive noises. The girl had to practically drag the dog with the help of her friend across the seating area and calm the dog down. My dog had zero reaction to the service dog, so the fact that the dog seemed as if she was trying to kill mine is completely unacceptable. I have continued to see that team multiple times, so I hope she is at the very least working with a trainer to prevent this from ever happening again.
I’m so sorry you had that experience! I’d say you did exactly the right thing! Way to go, Hippo!
You are so amazing and inspirational! Harlow is the best! 💙
Good on you for following through and letting Disney know what happened! More people need to be called out for their improper behavior. I live in Ontario, Canada, and while we do dont have ID, there are other provinces that do! I cant wait until ontario gets on board and sTrt requiring ID for all service dog teams
That's not a service dog if it attacks people or animals for no reason. I hate people with fake service animals.
I am so sorry that happened to you. My service dog and I have been attacked many times. Now my service dog gets scared when he sees another dog team. Most the teams in my area are not trained so they pee in stores and attack us. One of the dogs bit my boob leaving a puncture mark. My service dog and I now go every week for counseling to help both of us get over it. I literally cannot leave the house without him so it is important we both work together to get past this fear we have of service dog teams. It just seems so hopeless when we never have met a friendly dog team. I was so embarrassed of the placement of the bite that I didn't report it. It would have put me in a PTSD attack to show it to a stranger. I do still have a picture of it.
As a team in a small town I’ve noticed more people buying amazon vests and bringing their dogs into public shortly after seeing me and my service dog. Fake service dogs are such a danger and the fact that it’s a growing issue is horrifying.
I am so sorry that this happened to you and Harlow,but I also want to say thank you for making this video. One of the things that I really admire about you is your ability to turn a negative into a positive and a bad experience into a teaching opportunity.
In regard to businesses giving grief for a lack of ID - I carry what is essentially a business card with the law written on it and a link to the ADA government webpage regarding the subject. I have a stack of them in my wallet and purse so I can give them to businesses or individuals who could use some more education on the subject. Some people REALLY want to stick to their idea of what a team needs to have (ID) but for the most part, it shuts people up. I am so so sorry that you have had this experience
Just got to the part where she explains that service dog registry is a scam which I thought was ironic since at the start of me watching this video an ad advocating official service dog registration occured.
I know that in the UK there are certain types of legitimate service dog certifications (I.e. official guide dogs have the vest - they can't be pet or distracted, official hearing dogs - you can ask the handler to pet them as they don't have to be so alert though it's the handlers decision). I've also seen what looked like a medical or mental health dog at a convention - but it wasn't in any kind of official gear (but was in a costume bandana) and was being pet by a group of girls that were talking to the handler.
People shouldn’t use untrained animals as ‘service’ dogs they are dangerous to others and gives real service animals a bad rep where trained service dogs are there as their owner needs them to help their owners. Not being funny that owner on a walker her dog could have pulled her over
You are so kind not to judge. I will try to work on not judging.
I’m glad you’re both ok. Good girl Harlow for being a good dog.
Thank you, Jaquie, for posting this video. Although we have been lucky as a service dog team to never have experienced an attack, I am constantly frustrated, and yes, I will say it, angered by those individuals who try to pass their dogs off as service dogs, or worse, those individuals who constantly come up to me and say, "I wish I could get my dog trained as a service dog, so I could take Fluffy with me everywhere'!
