- We spent our first full day in Florida at Universal Studios! It was my first time visiting Universal with a service dog. Their accessibility was fantastic and employees were sooo sweet and accommodating. 10/10 in my book! Hagrid's ride was AMAZING! An absolute must if you're visiting!
The team we are with is @cadetnoxus on instagram, and we later meet @rescue_service_dog in the park!
Questions//Concerns? I'm most easily reached via Instagram DM!

Ridley is a multipurpose service dog in training. She is task trained to mitigate my psychiatric and physical disabilities. She is granted public access rights to enter non-pet friendly places via The Americans With Disabilities Act and California Disabled Persons Act. Bringing non-service dogs into non pet friendly establishments is illegal. Faking a service dog is a federal crime, and a misdemeanor in many states punishable by $1k+ in fines and jail time. Please do your research before bringing your dog into public to find out if they are pet friendly. Target. Walmart, Disneyland, and any theme park or store/establishment that sells food is NOT pet friendly.
not gonna lie. when they asked BOTH questions? i LEGIT started tearing up bc they NEED to ask those things more often. MORE businesses NEED to be asking. like i WANTED to be there just bc it would be SO much more safe than anywhere i go here at home.
@@Mehrbduhs it was at about 3:11 They asked 'is that a service dog' and 'what tasks does it perform'
@@charlieg3674 Is there a reason they muted it for privacy? I don't get why they need to be private about what services the dog can perform.
I was under the impression it's illegal for them to ask those questions due to medical privacy. "Is it a service dog" usually gets by but not usually "what is it trained to do", I thought?
I suppose you can simply say "respond to my medical necessities".
@@callieking8860 Maybe the tasks performed gave away more medical info than one of the people at the meetup felt like having on the internet. I can't say for sure though
@@bunniesbunniesbunnie in the united states the americans with disabilities act explicitly says businesses can ask "is that a service dog" and "what tasks is it trained to perform"
I love employees that actually know what they’re talking about. And ask the right service dog questions. Kudos to Universal Studios!!! 🦮🐕🦺🙌🏼
*rid getting smacked in the face by noxies tail the whole time* HAHA
her favorite thing about him honestly
I can just feel the sensory overload by just watching the video. why do I love the parks so much!!! I like universal so much more than Disney they’re way more accommodating which makes it 10 times better that’s why I have season passes
it definitely gets to be a lot, but that’s why we take lots of breaks!
@@theservicehyena3088 yeah, i agree. i love disney but i also take a ton of breaks as well
The employees/workers seemed to be so educated on service dogs and how to properly accommodate for them, absolutely wonderful.
i love that they were.
I wish I had the money to do with, it seems like so much fun- I also wish I had more ppl to do meet ups with.
Me too. I wish I had more teams and money
Lol I need a service dog meet crew but there is no one in Virginia
None where I live-
Didn't know parks had crates for service dogs. So cool.
yeah they have them at any theme park you go to if you look for them but PLEASE if there is a SD in the kennel, leave it alone and dont interact. it is sort of like their break in the shade and out of the way from people
Love all your blogs by the way (especially Disney ones!) I am an Orange County, CA girl with a service dog too, so it's cool to see other teams out there. Just wanted to comment about what you guys were saying when you saw the other team. I also, would have been very appreciative for the heads up that another team was behind you. But because I know my own history, remember there are always handlers that cannot communicate for various reasons -- such as PTSD or anxiety, or selective mutism. I have DID and CPTSD and have had years of selective mutism and at times probably couldn't have done you the courtesy. Although, I probably for that reason, would have tried not to walk near you either! Anyway, that's my little soapbox! Keep making great videos!
oh i 100% agree with you! i for one likely wouldn’t be able to speak up bc of my anxiety and i often just freeze up. but like you said, i’d likely just give them as much space as possible! nice to meet another OC handler!! 💛
That is the first time I’ve ever seen someone respectfully ask the only 2 questions they are allowed to ask, and ask them verbatim. Wow.
Hagrid’s Motorbike Adventure is my favorite!
32:20 That's Lil Bit from The Rescued Service Dog!!!!!!!
YEP!
I was just at universal/Disney world!! I missed you guys by a couple of months.
That dog you met with is so cute. 🤣
LOL yep such a precious little bean!
i'm bringing my service dog with me to disney world and i love the idea of her running around in that area. were the disney hotels not open? if so, where did you stay/where was that area? thanks!
Not me watching Harry Potter after this lol
Sooooo adorable!!!!!!!❤️
Obsessed with this! If it was super hot (I know it probably was lol) How many breaks did y’all end up taking? And how often? Thinking about bringing my girl to either there or Disney once she is a fully trained SD ☺️
the weather was pretty all over the place, but never got hot enough for the pups to need boots so that was nice! we took a break pretty much between every ride, sometimes more than one. really depended how we were feeling at the time! most of those i didn’t film bc they were hella boring 😆
@@theservicehyena3088 🤣 bahaha, I totally understand that one so well
i miss seeing ridley videos, but i understand why you wanted more privacy! i hope you and ridley are doing well 🤍 hopefully you can come visit disneyworld soon! (i work there hahah)
i have the same skull and snake wand that i was got there too, cool. Great video love you channel :)
Oh my goodness the ties! Do you remember how much they were and did you get them in the park lol. I’m going next year and I need one
I was like what is wrong with her tail? Took me a while to figure out her tail was dyed😂
Collin and Lil Bit!
The ride you are referring to.Ladies is called hogwarts provision journey.That is the casual ride you are referring to
the ride is named harry potter and the forbidden journey and has been since it opened
hey i have a question i loved the patches on the vest where did you get them me and my service dog are going in may to universal its her first time going so its exciting
hi! the patches she is wearing in this video are custom made from the shop patchwork and paws on IG!
@@theservicehyena3088 ok thank you so much and if you have any tips or anything that could help us out since it’s her first time that would be great
@@jadecarrillo8144I’m a little late but I have some advice get some doggy headphones since it’s pretty loud in not so loud areas take them off to give her break also take lots of breaks chill breaks,water breaks,potty breaks and half way through the day go back to the hotel and them come back in 20 minutes or more hope that helps
Hi I have severe anxiety and my mum is trying to get me a application I’m this thing called CAHMS I think that’s how you spell it but what do you recommend on how I open up about it because I’m scared of people
if the moving walkway thing is on the next time you go please make sure to have boots on her paws it could rip out her nails
we are aware and are very careful. we likely won’t be back anytime soon as this was a very rare trip for us
Miss y'all
Where did you get that leash?
I’m so confused but amazed at the Dinosaur?? Is it real or am I the only one not getting it?
its a puppet! they do such a good job with it!
@@theservicehyena3088 I’m such a dumb dumb 😅 I just saw that, I was so confused for a moment
Yeah they do their best to make everything seem as real as possible it’s amazing
How did u get them to know when it's play time and then work time with another pup around cuz im having a little trouble with mine on differentiating between the them
Where did you get ridleys thick yellow collar??
Where did you get your service dog vest? I have a service dog in training and I’m looking for a vest that allows room for more than just the service dog in training patch. Thanks!
So I have a quick question for you. I’m starting to show signs that I am disabled and I may qualify for a service dog. I have multiple mental disabilities, and an issue with my knees and stability. How would you suggest I go about talking to my parents and my doctor as I am underage. Also, I play sports at a high level, but with a service dog I would be unable to keep playing correct? Sorry if this is a weird comment, I just know you have disabilities that are similar to mine, so I thought I should ask.
I'd recommend just starting by telling your parents some of the problems youvenoticd and ask them to bring you to a doctor about it. You can then recommend some things you think you might have and do some research about how to get a service dog in your area. Just generally do a bunch of research about everything!
what services can you get for psychiatric disabilities at the parks? (universal & disney)
does the team that you guys met have a youtube or instagram
yep! @rescued_service_dog on IG
@@theservicehyena3088 ok yay! i think i follow them already! i think there dogs name is lil bit
Quick question, why is Ridley’s tail painted pink?
it’s pet safe dye, it’s just for fun!
I suggest putting boots on there paws because of the hot pavement and the escalator floors can rip out there toe nails
it was the beginning of january, it was not hot. they have boots, but they are properly trained to step on and off escalators
@@theservicehyena3088 oh ok
sorry beginning of november, not january. i was thinking of the wrong trip
@@theservicehyena3088 ok hope you an Ridley are doing well ☺️ by the way is Ridley a belgian Malinois? She’s really pretty
@@nathalierodriguez0 we’re doing very well and stepping away from social media has been the best thing for us. i still check comments on here from time to time and it’s nostalgic in a way lol. and she’s actually a gsd x cattle dog mix!
Sorry for commenting on such an old video and with a lame question, but where did you get her harness? :)
not lame at all! and no need to apologize! her harness is from the shop @lemondropgear on instagram!
@@theservicehyena3088 Thank you!
What happened to ur dogs tail it’s pink
it is pet dye from the brand Opawz
@TheServiceHyena
Any tips for someone with "high-functioning" autism & scoliosis with a service dog?? I'm always scared I'm not handling public access issues well. I live in New York state if it helps.
Good question!!! I, too, have scoliosis and (possibly) autism. I'm in my 40s, so its something the drs are looking at late in life. Anyway, I'd like to know too!.
What breed is hyena? Ohhh known as rin( sorry if I spelt it wrong)
hey! her names Ridley, but we call her all kinds of nicknames haha! she’s a german shepherd mix 🥰
@@theservicehyena3088 ohhh 😮 I’m sorry :( thank you, I just thought her breed was adorable
@@theservicehyena3088 wow! She looks like a Belgian Malinois! Seems soooo calm though so GS mix makes sense 🤔 she's so beautiful regardless of breed.
@@theservicehyena3088 wow! She looks like a Belgian Malinois! Seems soooo calm though so GS mix makes sense 🤔 she's so beautiful regardless of breed.
@@Carlie_flower yep lol i get people guessing she’s a belgian a lot, i’m honestly convinced she does have some! don’t let her fool you though, she is very calm while working but a total maniac when off duty. lotssss and lots of training is what makes her seem sane 🤣
I’ve commented before about getting a service dog, but there so expensive. How did you save up?
You can train the dog yourself. If you did that, you would just have the expense of purchasing the pup and its supplies.
I have bought 3 service dogs myself and I payed 47-53k for each but that’s from someone I trust and have been working with for over 5 years
You can also consider other options! I know some service dog sellers that sell trained dogs and then you train the task yourself
Or you can buy the desired dog that’s matches your needs and then train them yourself
I'm from MI an 39yr woman civilan CPTSD Survivor with Hypokalemia/Hypoglycemia which both influence one another like a person with diabetes how is it my right to be a candidate for a Service Dog at facilities is less and undermined by facilities who see those who served are more important to become a candidate, how are we any different with a same diagnosis of PTSD? I have applied everywhere for a PTSD and Medical Alert Service Dog, but I'm constantly told Veterans and 1st responders get helped first, and can automatically be bumped ahead on a waiting list over others with worse case then them how is that fair. I have been told by many facilities they are only taking Veterans and 1st responders over civilians severe cases for god knows how long after their site says otherwise. This is disregarding civilians who seriously need a Service Dog, even get from facilities told try again in 3yrs trying to find a way to weed out those with the 2+ year waiting list who is serious and who isn'tnt is ludicrous. While many places I contact that Claim "we don't double standard 1st come first assisted 'liers', that they accept my and others medical reason for a Service Dog. Only to be asked if we served.....suddely nope we can't help you at this time or told you can be on waiting list. A waiting list in which they'd deliberately push further back of line civilians who truly need a Service Dog, because "Veterans and 1st Responders will always get preferential treatment be a candidate without any issues and 1st served by facilities over a civilian". As many facilities say because their lives and situation are more important than a civilian struggling with CPTSD/PTSD and Medical Issue....
Its saddening and appalling to pay$$$ to send in applications and get zoom calls just for them to say "Your not good enough, you probably don't know what your getting into, you don't meet our qualifications" I have after being recommended by my Psychologist, EMDR Therapist and Doctor know what it means to have a Service Dog as I have spent 2 years research and learning all about it....yet because I'm a woman civilian they assume I'm not up to the task as if I would be incapable 'they don't know me or my life what right does someone have to dismiss you over such ignorance and assumptions. You could have one of the worst cases than a veteran or 1st responders just to be dumb downed, humiliated, devalued and be told your not worth their time and don't fit their "Ideal Candidate" along with this "who makes priority over a civilian" with a worse case is hypocrisy.
I have seriously about given up what's the point, funny plenty of Service Dog Facility for physical handicapped and Veterans , but when it comes to Civilians who need a Service Dog and aren't handicapped nor a Veteran they make it practically impossible and it destroys you on such a deeper-level because of bias and what not that your not worth their time and your case is not as worth as a veterans.
Right now I have given up hope and my specialists have stepped in to try and reach out to the facilities because nothing I do works and its extremely discouraging to be put through hell by facilities who claim " they would take someone like you. Then told first we need $$$ from you for an application to be sent, just to be told you not worth their time, but your money they take just to submit an application is? My family, friends and I have been doing fundraising but still no facilities will take me because they said right now Veterans and 1st responders take center over civilians right now. The applications are a way to root out and find excuses not to take you, especially if your a civilian, also you can say your going to get a Service Dog and fill out applications but there is no guarantee.
I'm 43, hypoglycemic with PTSD. You don't have to go through a program. You can train them yourself or hire a trainer to assist you.
I would not bring my dog on the rides.
Why do you have such tight collers on your dog? And why 2 of them, she looks so uncomfortable?
hey! I appreciate the concern but I assure you that while the colors are snug, neither are tight. One of the collars is a training collar and three of my fingers easily fit under it (The guide for fitting collars typically says two fingers is the minimum for a safe fit) and the other collar, which has her tags on it, easily fits my entire hand under it. it is very normal for service dogs and working dogs in general, as well as dogs that are using any form of training collar, to wear multiple collars as training collars do not stay on them when they’re off leash and it’s always important to keep tags on your dog in case of an emergency. it’s actually dangerous to keep a collar too loose as a dog could easily slip out of it or get it caught somewhere and cause injury.
Thank you for replying to my comment, I understand now why you have the collers, I think alot is myself as I'm extremely chlostrophobic, and imagine myself with the collers on lol. I do hope I haven't offended anyone as that wasn't my aim. I love watching your videos, much respect from Sheffield Yorkshire UK 🇬🇧 xxx ❤️
@@melodyjamesz totallyyyy get that, i have a lot of sensory issues so even having like multiple bracelets can be overwhelming. i know multiple collars can look like a lot or even look kinda cluttered but its what works best for us!
Great puppies. Please point your camera at more than the back of the dogs head and your feet, please. Its good to see people's reaction and the dogs reaction to that. You are in public, no privacy issues, they are all recording you and your dog, so you should not worry about filming in public. When I am out and about, and filming, with my SD, I show all that I see, and that the dog sees. I have lots of very interesting encounters filmed with my Winnie.
i could be wrong but im pretty sure Ridleys handler also reviews the footage after to see their dogs behavior. Its just more of a priority to catch any problems like this than film other people. : )
again talks to sarah..who supposedly "can't hear" umm..yah.
dude… she’s legally deaf but has a cochlear implant and hearing aids you donut
did you forget that hearing aids exist? she’s literally deaf but has hearing aids and a literal device in her head allowing her to hear
Not that you deserve any sort of response, but I am deaf. I rely primarily on lip reading, which is impossible with mask which are obviously present in the video. I can recognize my friends voices easier than random strangers who are wearing masks. Seems like you’re saying people shouldn’t talk to me because I can’t hear. Thanks a ton, from now on I’ll make sure I’m not communicated with. In this video i am being accommodated for since I am avoiding the the embarrassment of having to ask the person to repeat themselves multiple times. But you just made the embarrassment exist so thanks.Thanks for your comment, keep it yourself next time.
