    Most important is making sure the dog behaves properly out in public and around other service animals especially.

    I’m actually only 12 ywars old and recently got my own pup, I suffer from severe and diets and severe depression, so I decided to train my pup to help me with my anxiety and depression, she is a couple weeks into training and she’s doing absolutely awesome! And she has already caught 2 anxiety attacks before they happened! In a couple months she will train in public for the first time once we get some more obedience down, specifically a hospital! I also have a little bit of trouble with vision and leg aches that happen randomly, as well as dyslexia, and possible a bit of ADHD so I’m very happy to have her by my side! I don’t know what we did to deserve dogs! I don’t know what I would do without her now!

    My heart goes out to Pratt. I recently got a poodle puppy whom I'm training as a service dog for mobility as well. It's always inspiring to see others stepping up and deciding to make the difference in their own life that needs to be made rather than relying on others. On her own, she created her independence.

      Hi! Sometime in the future I’m going to get a poodle for assistance dog work, some mobility tasks like helping me up the stairs and fmp and helping me walk almost in a straight line (I think is classed as counter balance in some ways). I’m around 5ft and not expected to grow by much, probably 5’5 at the max. Do you think a poodle is a good idea? As one full sized would reach mid-thigh at my height currently and just below my fingertips?

    When I trained my first service dog, people didn't respect her at all. There was never a day that she wasn't almost mobbed by many people, especially kids! Now I am starting my third one, just a year plus old pup. It's amazing how people have come to acknowledge and respect service dogs in this short of a time. Seldom does anyone approach her now without asking permission. Service dogs have come such a long way! I have always trained my dogs to go in and off duty. They all seem to do better if they get a few minutes I just be able to say, "hi." ❤

    I actually added a new disability service dogs help with. I have a debilitating stomach disorder formally known as acid reflux disease. I called it acid detection alert. I trained her to alert to stomach acid and working on training her to alert to taking meds because I’m about to start cardiac meds. I have ADHD which makes it difficult to remember or want to take meds.

    I don’t have a dog because the apartment I live in doesn’t allow pets, and my parents are busy most of the time. When I actually get a dog, I might train them to help with my anxiety. I have a fear of crowds, public speaking, and basically mostly anything that involves with a lot of people. It might even take more than 5+ years to move out of this crappy apartment. First thing im gonna do is decorate my room and get a dog. I might also want a cat too 😃
    Edit: I’ve got a dog now 😄

    I often have mobility issues despite only being 16 years old. I often get chronic pain in my ankles and knees and i'm never really not in pain. It been a long 2 years of trying to get a diagnosis with no luck and i'm often finding myself unable to walk or struggling to walk after long or sometimes short periods of walking and/or exercise so I always have to hold onto railings and even my mates to be able to get to places like classes at school. I also have severe anxiety and mild autism as well as severe dizzy spells that have left me on the floor not knowing at all how long I had been there or what had happened so the idea of a service dog has crossed my mind but due to my parents not entirely believing me about my struggles with mobility due to my young age as well as doctors and specialists not being able to find a diagnosis, i'm nervous of bringing it up to them. I do all the training and looking after regarding our current dog who is only a little over a year old and seeing this video has made me think I could begin further training him in obedience and maybe making him a service dog regarding my anxiety and autism as they affect me heavily daily but due to him not being big enough to help me in terms of mobility... I don't know whether to bring it up to my parents about training my dog to be a service animal despite his size or bring it up about getting a service animal. Any ideas on what I should do?

    I got my 4 month old shepherd collie mix a few weeks ago. I was planning on him being a pet but his temperment would be great for service work and he could bring back some independence. I have CPTSD, major depressive dissorder, possible connective tissue disorder, chronic pain, and dizzy spells. Im mainly hoping he can learn to pick up on my dizzy spells as thats one of my most quality of life impacting disablilities. I have a yorkie that has naturally detected it but she could never be a service dog due to aggression issues. Plus she isnt large enough to help elevate my legs or preform dpt. I love her to death but my new dog sure is going to help me a lot. My yorkie brings me a ton of emotional support though and helps me so much with my depression

    That doggo is such a sweetheart. And so calm for a boxer. Must be the other breed she seems to have in her (mastiff, maybe?). Bold choice, using a bully breed as a mobility dog. They're pretty prone to hip dysplasia, and thus aren't often suited to mobility tasks.

      For many people a service dog isn't a good choice for anxiety especially if that's the main reason for the SD.
      Having an SD creates so many anxiety inducing situations like when people start harassing you in stores trying to get staff to throw you out etc

      Taking a dog into the public arena to help you is a huge responsibility. If someone with a mental condition approaches your dog and the dog reacts that’s a problem. A person with anxiety should think about all the situations that can arise.

I've been waiting years to be able to rent a place that allows animals so I can train one (as service dogs in training don't have protection)

I just recently talked to my parents about it and I’ll have to pay for it all. So owner training is really my only option. Sadly I have no way to earn money to get the dog, for food for the dog, and for any possible vet bills. Does anyone know what I should do? Ik there are other ways to cope with my issues that a therapist could teach me but my dad pulled me out of therapy for a while and yeah… any ideas?

    • @thatonepossum5766
      @thatonepossum5766 Месяц назад

      If you’re in America, no, it is not legal. Service dogs are exempt from pet fees, as they’re legally medical equipment.
      However, there is no such thing as papers for a service dog (in the United States). Are you sure this is a service dog? If it’s an emotional support animal (often dogs with papers are actually ESAs) it does not have the same rights as a service dog and would probably not be exempt from a pet fee for visiting you.

    • @chetwood6517
      @chetwood6517 2 года назад +5

      NO worries, I fly with my mobility service dog several times a year- I fill out the form and list myself as the trainer with my phone number , perfectly legal and acceptable… when I got my dog, he was originally trained as a psychiatric service time. I had to repurpose him as a mobility dog, that’s why I list myself as a trainer. condition the dog, a lot at first. We have light rail near my home. Every day we would go to the station and sit and watch the trains enter and leave. We would add a little bit of time just sitting there as “Buddy” got acclimated to the sights and sounds. Next we would get on and immediately off the train. Then stay a little longer before getting off. Then one stop, off, sit and take a train back one stop… then up to 90 minutes round trip - where he also learned to sit at my feet and ignore the hustle and bustle near us…to condition him for the airport, we would go to the airport, walk the Concourse, out the door and drive home. Each time we went we added a little bit more time. Next we would get on the line for security and train, but get off the line before reaching the end of the line. I did that for about two weeks before we started to fly. I also trained him to walk between my legs so we could both fit down the aisle together. Also, train your dog to work at a distance in a crowd, when you get to the security gate, he stays behind as you go through and then you call him to you. A lot of work upfront, but now we enjoy the fruits of the labor. We do about 5 to 10 minutes of ongoing training every day… he’s been at my side three years and has immeasurably improved the quality of my life. You can do it!

They are totally different. A therapy dog has to be retested every few years for very specific tasks. A private person with a disability training their own dog with no oversight does not make sense. There is no certification, no guidelines. A therapy dog is certified w a organization that also insures that dog.,A service dog supposedly provides necessary medical support with no testing, no insurance????

    After being told that my Task Trained for medical condition, ESA Dog they many Service Dog Facilities stigmatized me said I had to get rid of my ESA that was tasked Trained if I wanted their Service Dog, and if your a civilian your on a waiting list, while a Veteran with PTSD or Medical Condition get to go above the line skip in front of civilians on a list, so 1st come 1st served and financially assistance by government for them. However if your a civilian you don't have that same equal right. So many like myself had no choice I have Hypoglycemia Sugar and Protein dropand Hypoklemia Potassium drops, which affects my Coordination, Heart, Kidneys. My Service Dog in training is 8months and in puppy Rebel stage but just means additional work. Unfortunately I get harassed because people are ignorant thinking only certain breeds are a Service Dog, and that unless you have a vest on the dog and it has a Service Dog Facilities logo your not legit and it's frustrating with the double standards of policing who people think are legit and aren't based on what the breed is, and if the have a vest on, are leashed which in some cases can prove task training interference and get in way so the dog is needed to be off leash to do its job, or if the vest has no Service Dog Facility Logo you get people lashing out, over reacting and saying your not legit, you don't look disabled, the breed is not recognized by them etc......etc.... it sets those in Public Access Training back with people being like that when your out and about.

    • @shakeyj4523
      @shakeyj4523 Год назад +2

      You really should use the proper terminology. ESAs, or Emotional Support Animals are any untrained animal, and they are only allowed in housing. They have no public access rights. If your dog is trained in tasks and/or Work to mitigate your disability, it is a Service Dog, and NOT an ESA. You are correct about Veterans. They are about 3% of the disabled population, but they receive the majority of facility trained Service Dogs (other than guide dogs). When talking about PTSD, they receive at least 90% of the trained dogs. You WILL have more challenges with a non traditional breed. You just have to accept that. I have had both, and there is a difference in how people treat you. There is also a difference in how people treat you if you have an invisible disability. My disability was invisible and over time became visible. I have fewer access challenges now, but people treat you pretty bad otherwise when they can see your disability, so one is not really better than another. Just pay attention to your own dog, and it's training, and tell the jerks to go hang. And stay away from those stupid facilities. They don't train dogs any better than most owner trainers do.

      @@shakeyj4523 I agree. They are predatory.. you're gonna pay to much to get a "trained" dog that you could do yourself if it's not a puppy. Takes much longer for puppy and really doesn't get into the harder stuff anyway until around 5-6 months old or later for some.
      I'm training a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix right now For a service dog. and also.. a ESA trained dog could be trained as a Service dog if they are the right dog. People are snobs.

      @@larryfulmer Yep, and the worst offenders are the training facilities. They are the ones who caused this mess, when they attempted to get legislators to do away with owner training. Good luck with your dog!!!!
