Literally, I have autism and I am trying to get diagnosed for tourettes. When you tell people this they say “you don’t look autistic” and when I get a tic attack they act all surprised and act like I just can stop easily. I hate it
Actually where I live some of the stores let any dogs come in, as long as they're leashed, friendly, and under control, like pets smart, big lots, ace hardware, home depot, Lowe's, and walmart. Atleast where I live. And even stores allow small dogs, in a personal item, like stroller. I always take my girl, to these stores, when I go.
Walmart is not supposed to, they just decide to not follow their own policy and federal law. Why have a policy that clearly say's SERVICE DOGS ONLY (next time you go to Walmart, look on the door and you will see the sign. it's blue) if your not gonna follow it.
Can you have a service dog for severe depression. I get episodes of depression where it is so bad that I can’t move, and it’s hard to breath. Does that qualify for a service dog?
Kassie wuz here i reccomend talking to your doctor :) they know everything about your medical history, and you can explain ada law to them if they dont know it.
How did u get ur service dog in weir high school because my mom getting me a puppy and im gonna train him to be hearing dog like if i drop my stuff he can pick it up for me. When I train him can we get together and train him???
Update on Max hes 6 weeks and walking off leash and every now and then i have to correct him to focus and follow me but so far so good hes a fast learner
hi I'm 13 I live in Az,I have autism and anxiety i want sd I 3 dogs but none of them are my service dogs.can a service dog alert you to for one disabilitie?
I have a therapy dog and we volunteer at an assisted living facility. I bring him into public places because he is still in training and I try to take him into as many places as possible so he gets used to it. I always ask the manager if it’s ok. Most places where I live are pet friendly and I didn’t realize it.
Charly M managers usually do not know the policies actualy (i know, its kind of stupid) pet friendly places are the only places a therapy animal can go. also, always check the corporate policy (a general rule of thumb is if theres food then you cant bring your non-service dog in).
Cooper the Service puppy at a public school, youre covered by the ada so its illegal for them to deny you. theyre considered part of your 504 plan (accomodation for disability or illness). with a private school, you arent covered by the ada so you can be denied. as far as that goes you may want to get a doctors note and show them vaccinations and paperwork (they may ask for registration, but you dont have to give it to them). for private schools i reccomend watching service angel percie, she went to a private high school. i hope this helps :)
Uhm, what website is that? I would like to read it because I’m evaluating if I want to be a service dog trainer when I grow up, any other helpful information will be ~GREATLY~ appreciated!
The second you said your dog could alert you when a panic attack was gonna come I was like OMFG I NEED THAT. Also cloud is adorable and you seem like such a nice and pretty person inside and out. Love your videos!
You probably should’ve mentioned the fact that just because you have a medical condition doesn’t mean you’re DISABLED. Like I feel like a lot of people will see this and be like “oh! I have anxiety so if I just train my dog then he can be a service animal!” Even if they aren’t disabled by their condition. Do you know what I mean?
This makes me so mad! So many people say "I'm gonna train my dog to be a Service animals." And I ask them what tasks would they do? And they say "I don't know, I just want my dog to go with me everywhere I go."
Ghosted it depends if it refrains you from doing regular things like school. Then yes but I do recommend service dogs to not be a first resort, but if it isn’t I recommend you consult with a doctor and if they say yes, Go for it. But I do believe and ESA is better than a service animal.
Great video! Thank you for this! Also, I saw an ESA in a mall when I was in Washington D.C. I knew it was not supposed to be in public, but I didn’t want to intervene plus I was leaving.
@@demhoes911 esa do not have public access rights by federal regulations but psychiatric service animals do since they are a service animal. I don't know every state's regulations but I believe most do not give esa public access rights
I love you guys this video taught me new things I should know and your videos help me and are so cute and amazing I love you guys and I hope your day is going well and I wanted to know we’re you got clouds blue vest that says every cloud has a silver lining :)
My dog is a service dog. But to some people they see me and don’t see I have a mental disorder so they assume me having a dog isn’t for a reason i just want to bring him places and get away with it. That’s why we call him a esa because I’m mine and my family’s experience it’s easier for us.
This helped me so much BC I never really understood service dogs. I would think I needed one but now I know I don’t . I need a emotional support dog . So thank you so much . Cause I was confused
I have borderline personality disorder and live in the uk, the psychiatrist that I have seen told me that it wouldn’t be necessary to have a service dog. I’ve been in trouble with the police before due to episodes and have also had countless episodes of anxiety, depression, rage and stuff. I’m just asking for opinions on the situation as I only have one quote? Anyways, I love your videos and Cloud is so cute 🖤❤️😊
Hi, I’m new to your channel and I enjoy very much watching it. Can you please post where’s you buy the dog lease and everything else. And thank you so much for taking the time to post how you train your beautiful dog. It helps me so much cause I’m get Chronic migraine and dizzy at and Im learning by watching you train your dog that’s help train my dog
This honestly helped me learn so much! I have so many service dogs on my campus and I never knew that someone could have two service dogs. I have two individuals that live in my building with two service dogs a piece.
@ KOLE'S JOURNEY SERVICE DOG IN TRAINING As it should be. Too many people claiming disabilities just to have a dog they claim to be a service dog so they can be obnoxious in public and put up self aggrandizing youtube videos.
Good way to go. Lot's of SD's dont have their CGC even though it has a focus more towards pets and basic obedience. Sadly, lot's of SD channels I watch, their dogs just from what I could see, would not pass a CGC (basic obedience)...which is why a lot of them likely don't do it. Lot's of pets pass though.....hhhmmm. :)
Ok..... im training my dog to be a service dog for anxiety and depression but idk were to get the papers or permission or vests for her... Does the psychologist give you the permission??
If you are disabled then I would talk to your Dr to see if they support it. Next know that you might need a letter if you live in no pet housing or since it's psych for air travel. As far as a vest I got mine from a well known service dog gear maker called jubaliees
you can get service dog vests from chewy, Amazon, or from a maker on etsy. you will need a note from your doctor, therapist, or psychiatrist saying you are disabled and need the dog.
Even if I needed a Service Dog and we have proof and my Psychologist and EMDR specialist has meet our 2 elderly well-behaved dogs at home and 4 cats and have given a documentation that both dogs we have worked with to help me in some forms of tasking for my CPTSD and won't hinder a Service Dog. When I need a Service Dog to work with me outside of the house where EMS dogs cant go. I'm told after paying $$$$ upfront that they decide NO because they won't acknowledge my senior dogs regardless of the EMS documentation and are good behaved. I was even told by one it would be distractions for Service Dog despite my specialist seeing and knowing thats not true, we work with our two elderly dogs to help me and that still means nothing. I need a Service Dog to help me manage my CPTSD outside of the home more so than in home except for night terrors. I was told by another "surrender your dogs or wait till they are both dead before reaching back out to us for a Service Dog from them" I went into full CPTSD attack vomiting and severe migraine and partial disassociation couldn't believe I'd be told something like that from a Service Dog Facility it destroyed me emotionally and mentally to hear them say get rid of or wait till they die if you want a Service Dog through them, I was disheartened and disgusted and wanted to give up on getting a Service Dog even though I knew I needed one in order to live again outside of my home with my CPTSD. Why do that after charging $$$$ for applications and upfront skype fee they'd go and do such a thing. I'm 39 and am a Rescue Adoption Shelter Animal Advocate never thought to hear such monsterous words from a Service Dog Facility after giving them $$$$ of my money while trying to raise the 1st $5,000 needed to be put down to start if selected. How can a Service Dog Facility do that? If the Service Dog Facility one of 5 we have wasted $$$$$ on application and intervies by 4 others who said no because they didn't acknowledge the documentation by my Pschologist and EMDR Specialist my 2 senior dogs were not an issue, if this 5th one says No I don't know what I'll do, and no we won't give up my beloved EMS pets, yet I'd have to give back $7,000 raised for my needed Service Dog if it doesn't work out. I don't want to wait till I'm 60 either to qualify based on this issue over EMS pets in house.
this was two weeks ago so sorry if this comment is annoying lol. anybody with a diagnosis on a disability can qualify for an ESA with just a doctors note. to qualify for a service dog you need at least one mental or physical disability that prevents you from a major aspect in life (like talking, bending over, thinking, walking, eating, etc. the ADA defines it more clearly) so technically a lot of people can qualify for a SD but as a rule of thumb it should be bad enough to where you cant work or go to school
I live in Canada (in canada you NEED a written note from either a therapist or doctor with your diagnosis and approval of needing a Service Dog. Basically you have to be prescribed a service dog) I have my written approval for a psychiatric Service Dog but Im having trouble picking the best breed. I have a dog currently but he’s 7 (clearly to old to be trained and a mutt lol) I have narrowed my breed choices down to 4 main ones: German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Saint Bernard and Lab. I have done research on every breed and I am looking for a bigger dog not only to effectively alert to my disabilities and perform DPT but to help with mobility when/if needed. What would be the best breed choices based on your (or anyone else’s) experience owner training a SD? A lot of ppl I have asked have recommended a Shepherd but I have no experience with any of those breeds and Im worried that I will suck at owner training lol. Any advice is greatly appreciated 🙏🏻 Thanks!
Goldens are 100% the best choice for new handlers. They are easy to train and can be bred to have amazing work drive. Not to mention they are beautiful. If you want a not so common SD, I would chose a SB because of their size and work drive. GSDs are very floofy and require lots of exercise (like all dogs but GSDs typically require more)
Hunter Schmidt for my whole life i've always had golden retrievers. They are very good for families with children. BUT they die most of the Time from cancer, thats why they have the other name "cancer retrievers". They have problems with dysplasia etc. They have many genetic problems. For a Service dog i would recommend german shepherd. They are always the Best trained dogs.
キアアラKeyara I have tried showing them the laws but my superintendent is saying that my GAD and PTSD is not a disability. He is saying I need to be either blind or have a seizure alert dog to be able to bring to school. It is a public school.
Dezera Martinez if you get a doctor confirmation but still deny you should be able to sue the superintendent for breaking federal law. But if you don’t want to sue you can tell them to look at the ADA laws saying that you cannot deny a service animal and that mental/ invisible disabilities do exist. You can tell them that you can practically sue him/her for breaking federal law. I’ve had my mom sue the principal of my old school for denying my service dog and asking illegal questions.
キアアラKeyara yes I have a doctors note. I have made a complaint with the ada but by the time I hear back from them I will already be graduated. I will have to look into a lawyer to consider suing. Thank you so much!
All these videos state that service dogs are allowed anywhere people are. The exception is religious buildings, and tribal lands. Both are exempt from ADA. Please look up these establishments before demanding entry.
My doctor and therapist had a talk with me about getting a service dog for my anxiety, depression, and eating disorders, bulimia and anorexia.. Im honestly terrified of getting one because it was a huge step for me to except i had a problem, it was an even bigger step actually going to a therapist, and im terrified of getting a service dog ( dont get me wrong i LOVE dogs) because i feel like people are going to know i have a problem, i feel like theyre going to think im crazy and lately ive been watching a lot youtube videos to help me cope with the fact that i might have a service dog in the near future. Any advice?...
wait wait so service dogs don’t need to be registered? or have special ID or paper? woah i’ve been living a lie thank you so much this helps me so much!!!
By law does diagnosed disability mean a person must be receiving disability and legally unable to work or can it include a diagnosed disabling condition that majorly effects the person? I am diagnosed With both PTSD and BPD,was looking into getting a service dog for physc but want to know if that trained dog (alerting me to triggered behavours or giving pressure therapy etc) would be, in terms of general public access protected under the law mentioned?
Yes, you can have a service dog for PTSD, as it does count as a disability and is very serious. The ADA does not limit what a disability is, as long as the disability a person clams to have effect's their day to day tasks, meaning it makes it hard for you to do everyday things such as go out in public, go to school, stand in large crowds, etc.
How do you talk to your doctor about getting the documentation declaring you disabled if they do not understand the impact that my diagnosis (chronic illnesses) have on my day to day life? What if they refuse to despite how much they affect my day to day life a service dog could benefit extremely?
How did you get the money for your dog?? I know that you owner trained you SD, but I am looking for a program dog. I have tried fundraising on GoFundMe, but that didn't work. I have to make the money myself. :/ which I am ok with. I just need some advice on how to make some money other than getting a job. I already have one.
How do you make a dog a service dog? How is it officially considered a service dog if it doesn’t need a license or paper to prove it is. I’m very interested in this. Do you just go to your doctor and they decide if you are able to get a service dog depending on your diagnosis?
Tren Tren training. you dont need a doctors note to bring a service dog into a public place. if you want to know more, i suggest straight up reading the ada lol it has every answer 😂
I have a question....is Extreme Depression, General Anxiety and ADHD considered a disability if it stops me from going into public and stops me from attending school? My dad doesn’t believe in mental illness and he just wants me to go to school... my school is too much and I really can’t go and I’m in the progress of trying to move school, I’m 14, should I attempt to ask for a service dog?
if it disables you from doing major things in your life, like thinking or eating etc, then its a disability. the ADA law defines it a little more clearly but a rule of thumb is if you cant work or go to school, then its severe enough to qualify. i am 17 and had to quit normal highschool and go for online school because of severe social anxiety, depression and other things. im lucky that i already own a dog who is a good candidate, and we will do public access when we are at a good enough spot in training. i REALLY recommend the blog actuallyservicedogs.tumblr.com , there is a lot of good information there (especially in the FAQ) and reading through the answers to questions. i know somewhere on it is a specific post about convincing your parents about it too :)
Hi I have ADHD Anxiety trichotilomania dermotilimania and an OCD personality type I want and think I need a service dog but I’m 11 and I have a cat, the meds I take that actually help with anything have bad side effects and I still have anxiety attacks almost every day and even sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with them and one time I passed out from hyperventilating I have a therapist but I don’t think they are right for me not to mention they are 2 hours away even with breathing exercises my mom is the only one that can really quickly and successfully de escalate and stop my attacks I also have intrusive thoughts mild obsessions and compulsions anyway am I able to get a service dog? I’ve talked to my parents about it a little but haven’t really had a serious conversation because we are about to move and won’t be able to get one until then but we hope to move before 2019 or at the very very least early 2019 any advice?p.s I’ve already looked up the laws for qualifying and ownership/training and average costs for different things...
First of all, nobody is a medical professional. And if you're doctor think's you're disabled then you qualify for a service dog. You by law have to be disabled in order to qualify for a service dog. Also quick note you can be any age, religion, race, and ethnicity in order to have a service dog. Talk with you're doctor, if you don't like them change them. JS nobody here can tell you whether you qualify for a SD or not. It's not all about taking a dog everywhere, and it's certainly not fun.
Would you recommend a service dog to stop self harming and panic attacks. I struggle with this a lot at school but teachers don't notice and do anything. My stress coping mechanisms are mostly scratching myself and not realising. Would you recommend a service dog to alert towards this.
I don’t know if you have gotten help yet but you should definitely go to a better doctor. Since it’s been so long ago I hope you have gotten the help that you need
Well an Emotional Support animal should not be in a public place. But no they cannot deny a service animal because of someone’s allergy. BUT you should still be respectful towards others if you have a Service animal
MelLovesToDraw they can smell it, a friend of me has diabetes and she has a service dog. its amazing, there are dogs outside which can diagnose cancer by smelling
i know you quit kinztube but you inspired me so much and i miss you but i know your happy i just wanted to say thank you so much for everything on kinztube you have made everyone happy when there down you were a big part of us and we care for you it was the best for you to go tho we love you so much stay happy
recently I've been considering looking into getting a service dog and I just want to thank you for making this video! it's very informative and helpful especially for someone such as myself who is only just beginning to gather information. I still have a lot of research to do as well as some conversations to have with my psychiatrist, but this along with the handful of articles I've read so far feels like a very good place to start! :)
Would a SD help Misophonia? I have pretty bad Misophonia that makes me panic from the trigger sounds, it interferes with my day to day life and I don’t go a day without feeling the panicky feelings it gives me, I was researching it and as much as I read I got mixed results 😕 I read that it could lead me away from sounds that trigger it, but like I said I got mixed results and not sure what all it could do
My dog is an ESA that im trying to train to alert my nervousness and stop me when i scratch my hands or leg bounce. But I'm only 11 so its super hard and if you have any advice then please give it to me now! 😄😍
I couls be wrong, but your doctor or therapist (?) needs to suggest one, or you need to bring it up to them and see if you're eligible. Somone please correct me if I'm wrong. I have been thinking about getting an SD or ESD for my anxiety, but I don't have a therapist yet. Yes, my family is working on that.
@@vie2402 If I remember correctly, your doctor should agree that a service dog would be beneficial to your treatment plan (someone with anxiety may have more problems with the attention they get from a dog), but you also have to be diagnosed with a disability.
You have to have a diagnosed disability and a doctor must know about the service dog because they are a treatment plan they need to have it on record. If you have a doctor that you see regularly you should ask them if a service dog would benefit you and they will add it to your treatment plan
This is false. Unless u will be needing a letter for no pet housing (or no pet deposit) or airlines, or maybe even a school or work, technically u don't have to have a letter by the ADA. U do have to have a diagnosed disability according to the ADA but your dog does not have to be "Recorded as a treatment plan". Because no insurance will pay for a SD so it doesn't matter if its "recorded" or not because insurance isn't monitoring it. And even when I went in to get my letter for housing, they just had a copy they print out for everyone. (Because of the Fair housing law it covers both SDs and ESAs under the same FHA Law, which I was really upset about, I had them specify at the botton of the letter he was a SD and not just a ESA. It took alot to get them to though but I fealt I needed the exact wording. but they just print out the same letter for everyone that needs a letter for housing). But unless you specifically will need somthing from your doctor, its not important for them to know immediately. Unless of course u wanted advice from them. But all it takes it a diagnosed disability that a task trained SD can help migrate. Also some programs and trainers might ask for a dr note. But technically if u didn't need anything from your doctor it doesn't matter if they know. My doctor didn't know right away about my dog, until he was trained enough to go with me and I moved out so then needed a letter. But because of my disabilities all my doctors where already on board with it so it was no problem getting the stuff I needed. But I knew what I needed and what would help me. Since insurance won't cover a SD, and so there is no "prescription" for them, it wasn't important for them to know right away. Maybe if I needed advice but I didn't. I already knew how my dog would beable to help me by alerting, tasking, and responding that I didn't need my doctors help deciding it. So it depends on your situation and how fast u need to talk to your doctor about it. If u want advice its always good to talk to them. But if your like me, know what u need, then if u have q diagnosed disabilitiy it's not a huge problem telling them right away unless u want to.
What is the law like for being able to bring your service dog to school for you? Does your dog have to be registered or anything like that? Or is it a matter of talking to the school?
To have your service dog in school, it has to be included with your accommodations. To do this, your guardian has to set up a meeting with the school to create a 504 plan or an accommodation plan similar to that. If it is a public school or a school that receives state funding, they have to allow the dog. Unfortunately, if your at a private school, they can deny you. Hope this helps! I’m in the process of this right now.
Thanks for this video! This helps me a lot. Being able to afford training a service dog is very difficult for me but now that I know I can train it on my own things are made much easier!
Yes, but you have to got diagnosed by a doctor or psychiatrist with a mental disorder such as G.A.D (generalized anxiety disorder) and P.D (panic disorder) which are the two that I have. Then you have to decide if your disorder is bad enough to be a disability. But even if you have a disorder like G.A.D or P.D, you should not just jump to service dog. Try therapy, medicine, coping kills, meditation and literally EVERYTHING else before you get a service animal. Please realize that training a service animal takes hours of days of months of years, and can be extremely mentally challenging with someone who already has stress disorders and such. It's also a huge responsibility. You should do months of research before getting a prospect to MAYBE become a service dog. And please realize that it is NOT as great as it seems to have a dog with you all the time... TRUST ME! www.ada.gov/regs2010/service_animal_qa.html Thats the link to the laws by ADA. Best of luck and hope this helped.
Joan Mcgilton yes, most programs (takes 1-3 years)you pay for the dog and training but there are a few you have to pay for training, that could lead up to 15,000 to 60,000$, then there’a owner training its less expensive (I don’t know how much since I didn’t owner train) but it can take 4-6 years.
it takes about 1-3 years to train a service dog depending on what you need it to do :) some programs will place a dog for free. i did some math (for my mom lol) and for owner training they cost between $2,400-$24,500. for programs, they cost between $11,550-$38,600.
Would depression, panic attack, and social anxiety qualify for a service dog. Or if I have those disabilities and the dog is trained to defuse the emotions can they be a service dog? (Sorry if this was a confusing question) also is there a certain age the dog has to be a service dog, assuming they have training.
@@jalahalexandria1797 the question is for my bf not me and I don't think the attention of a service dog would give him an attack I know his triggers, it's more to do with the commotion (like crowds or a busy store(our city is a tourist attraction so it gets busy) )around him then the attention of people looking
Elissa Fall I think you should consult with a doctor and if they give you the green light go for it. But there are people that will legit harass you,. So if a doctor thinks it’s a good idea I say go for it. They know more than someone that doesn’t even know you lol.
I mean I get that this is educational, but the eye rolling at some points really annoys me. It's like this is a bother to her, knowing there are people that do not instantly know the difference or the entire fucking law.. (example; service dogs that arent wearing a vest are pretty easily mistaken for pets and thats really understandable, there's no reason to be so rude about it)
one thing I dislike about the ADA is that people can’t ask for proof like a doctors note, so people can fake SDs a lot easier. I’m in Ontario and businesses are legally allowed to ask you for a doctors note which I feel should be more used.
liv uslenghi honestly, I am against that. that can put more stress on the handler to get that information and have to bring that with them everywhere. No thanks.
Anna and Sophie the Service Dog Yes I get that is why I probably see more fakes in the states then I do see where I live. Basically anyone can fake a SD in the U.S. And you should have a doctors note to begin with as it’s apart of your treatment so it should already be on file. I see non disabled people with trained dogs all the time and it’s so obvious, yet it could be prevented.
Anna and Sophie the Service Dog And who knows maybe you’re just defensive because you’re not legally disabled and just have a service dog because you just want one. idk u and many people have SDs who aren’t actually disabled & the US laws let people get away with this.
liv uslenghi 1) You shouldn’t just assume that just because I don’t want to share my disability with random strangers means I’m fake. That’s just rude and uncalled for. 2) don’t say I’m fake. I’m not and will not share personal info with someone like you. Not being defensive. It’s called privacy. You shouldn’t have a service dog if you’re going to harass other SD teams
Under AODA it talks about a grey area where you could potentially get a note for a symptom rather then an overall disability. So if you have a problem with panic attacks (but aren't formally diagnosed with a panic disorder) and your doctor/NP gives you a note for your dog to assist you with your panic attacks, under AODA, that counts as an SD. It kinda make sense, because health care in Canada takes FOOOOOOOREVER. You want to see a specialist, you will be waiting until next year. It took me 9 months to get into one of my specialist. Coulda have trained an SD by then.
I have an emotional support dog but she is trained to lay on me during panic attacks, I just trained her myself. I live in MN and even the Mall Of America allows her in, (she's also 3 pounds so that may help?) I literally had no idea it wasn't legal to do this. Oops. 😂
I have a question if you're willing to answer! My pittie Jace is a Therapy Dog. We trained him ourselves but he still had to go and take a test with the Alliance of Therapy Dogs in order to become a certified therapy dog to go into hospitals and nursing homes. Did you or will you have to take Cloud to take a test in order for her to become a certified Service Dog? Just asking out of curiosity! New subscriber and I love watching your videos with her
Service Doggie respectfully, yes you do. service dogs are only for those who are disabled. they are accomodations for the disabled to be able to live a better life. diagnosis and disability do overlap, but you need to talk to your doctor to know if youre disabled :)
But to many people take advantage of the flexibility of a service dog. I have so called service dogs come in and jump on other customers, jump on shelves and bite merchandise or lick toys. I never call someone out or kick out any service dog even if I call bs. but it's sad When you ask for payment for damages from there dog, they just start rambling on about service dog rights and threaten to sue you.
They can’t sue you if their dog ruined the merchandise because their dog is supposed to be trained to even be allowed in public. So in all honestly you couldn’t get in trouble. And you can kick them out. That’s also the problem with businesses is that they don’t recognize the dog isn’t an actual service dog and doesn’t kick people out.
Isis Moak at a public school, youre covered by the ada so its illegal for them to deny you. theyre considered part of your 504 plan (accomodation for disability or illness). with a private school, you arent covered by the ada so you can be denied. as far as that goes you may want to get a doctors note and show them vaccinations and paperwork (they may ask for registration, but you dont have to give it to them). for private schools i reccomend watching service angel percie, she went to a private high school. i hope this helps :)
Have you tried having therapy sessions, and medication and such before hand? you shouldn't just jump right in "a service dog is what I need" because though it seems great to have a dog with you all the time who's cute, AND helps you, it's not. Trust me. I would give anything to be able to have gotten better without a service dog. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love my dog and he is the best thing that's ever happened to me. But Service dog's are package deal. They bring many great things by helping you, but they also bring many unwanted things, like extra attention, having to deal with access issues, people staring, kids running up to you or talking to your dog, people judging you because you "don't like like you have a disability" (smh that one annoys me so much), people trying to start stuff with you, having fake service dog's bark at your real one, and such. Just make sure your ready for it.
i hate when people are like "your not disabled or u don't look it" i'm like not all disabilities are visible.
Literally, I have autism and I am trying to get diagnosed for tourettes. When you tell people this they say “you don’t look autistic” and when I get a tic attack they act all surprised and act like I just can stop easily. I hate it
Hello Class 1-A
so true. I have a psych SD and other people think she's a guide dog. What?!?!
Actually where I live some of the stores let any dogs come in, as long as they're leashed, friendly, and under control, like pets smart, big lots, ace hardware, home depot, Lowe's, and walmart. Atleast where I live. And even stores allow small dogs, in a personal item, like stroller. I always take my girl, to these stores, when I go.
Walmart is not supposed to, they just decide to not follow their own policy and federal law. Why have a policy that clearly say's SERVICE DOGS ONLY (next time you go to Walmart, look on the door and you will see the sign. it's blue) if your not gonna follow it.
@@annagrace2713 plus against food code. Places that sell open food are supposed to be service animal only so grocery stores and restaurants.
Does anyone know if Michigan allows public access to service dogs in training I can’t find anything on it.
Can you have a service dog for severe depression. I get episodes of depression where it is so bad that I can’t move, and it’s hard to breath. Does that qualify for a service dog?
Kassie wuz here i reccomend talking to your doctor :) they know everything about your medical history, and you can explain ada law to them if they dont know it.
How did u get ur service dog in weir high school because my mom getting me a puppy and im gonna train him to be hearing dog like if i drop my stuff he can pick it up for me. When I train him can we get together and train him???
Of course I’ll help you with training
Awesome thanks ill let u know when we start. When i get him and get him calm down some and stuff
Update on Max hes 6 weeks and walking off leash and every now and then i have to correct him to focus and follow me but so far so good hes a fast learner
Naëll Cuenin well I had to get rid of him
What if your service dog needs to go to the bathroom in a plane or somewhere public what would you usually do.
So I can get my dog to be a service dog by owner training and get a vest.. where Did you get your vest it's really Nice.
Nia Baber you also have to have a disability to qualify for a service dog
hi I'm 13 I live in Az,I have autism and anxiety i want sd I 3 dogs but none of them are my service dogs.can a service dog alert you to for one disabilitie?
I have a therapy dog and we volunteer at an assisted living facility. I bring him into public places because he is still in training and I try to take him into as many places as possible so he gets used to it. I always ask the manager if it’s ok. Most places where I live are pet friendly and I didn’t realize it.
Charly M managers usually do not know the policies actualy (i know, its kind of stupid) pet friendly places are the only places a therapy animal can go. also, always check the corporate policy (a general rule of thumb is if theres food then you cant bring your non-service dog in).
@@lizsun261 No that is not true. Therapy dogs do not have public access rights.
FIRST! LOVE YOU GUYS
I didn’t get to watch the whole vid, but how do you get it service dog to come to school with you exactly because I told my school about mine
Cooper the Service puppy at a public school, youre covered by the ada so its illegal for them to deny you. theyre considered part of your 504 plan (accomodation for disability or illness). with a private school, you arent covered by the ada so you can be denied. as far as that goes you may want to get a doctors note and show them vaccinations and paperwork (they may ask for registration, but you dont have to give it to them). for private schools i reccomend watching service angel percie, she went to a private high school. i hope this helps :)
Uhm, what website is that? I would like to read it because I’m evaluating if I want to be a service dog trainer when I grow up, any other helpful information will be ~GREATLY~ appreciated!
How do I find out what my state law is?
What is ur disability
check description..
The second you said your dog could alert you when a panic attack was gonna come I was like OMFG I NEED THAT. Also cloud is adorable and you seem like such a nice and pretty person inside and out. Love your videos!
You probably should’ve mentioned the fact that just because you have a medical condition doesn’t mean you’re DISABLED. Like I feel like a lot of people will see this and be like “oh! I have anxiety so if I just train my dog then he can be a service animal!” Even if they aren’t disabled by their condition. Do you know what I mean?
I know exactly what you mean and I should have stressed it more about the diagnosed disability thing.
This makes me so mad! So many people say "I'm gonna train my dog to be a Service animals." And I ask them what tasks would they do? And they say "I don't know, I just want my dog to go with me everywhere I go."
Rileyyyyyy soo many people at my school are like that and I’m like diagnosis doesn’t mean your disabled.
I haven’t got a service dog, but if I were to get one it would be for alerting/stopping me from self harm. Is that valid use of a service dog?
Ghosted it depends if it refrains you from doing regular things like school. Then yes but I do recommend service dogs to not be a first resort, but if it isn’t I recommend you consult with a doctor and if they say yes, Go for it. But I do believe and ESA is better than a service animal.
Great video! Thank you for this! Also, I saw an ESA in a mall when I was in Washington D.C. I knew it was not supposed to be in public, but I didn’t want to intervene plus I was leaving.
Some are allowed too be in public
@@demhoes911 esa do not have public access rights by federal regulations but psychiatric service animals do since they are a service animal. I don't know every state's regulations but I believe most do not give esa public access rights
Can we get more training vlogs soon?
I love you guys this video taught me new things I should know and your videos help me and are so cute and amazing I love you guys and I hope your day is going well and I wanted to know we’re you got clouds blue vest that says every cloud has a silver lining :)
My dog is a service dog. But to some people they see me and don’t see I have a mental disorder so they assume me having a dog isn’t for a reason i just want to bring him places and get away with it. That’s why we call him a esa because I’m mine and my family’s experience it’s easier for us.
This helped me so much BC I never really understood service dogs. I would think I needed one but now I know I don’t . I need a emotional support dog . So thank you so much . Cause I was confused
I have borderline personality disorder and live in the uk, the psychiatrist that I have seen told me that it wouldn’t be necessary to have a service dog. I’ve been in trouble with the police before due to episodes and have also had countless episodes of anxiety, depression, rage and stuff. I’m just asking for opinions on the situation as I only have one quote? Anyways, I love your videos and Cloud is so cute 🖤❤️😊
Hi, I’m new to your channel and I enjoy very much watching it. Can you please post where’s you buy the dog lease and everything else.
And thank you so much for taking the time to post how you train your beautiful dog.
It helps me so much cause I’m get Chronic migraine and dizzy at and Im learning by watching you train your dog that’s help train my dog
Thank you for putting out this video. Very complete and great delivery.
This was extremely helpful, thank you for helping educating the public about the ADA. Love the vids, keep them coming.
This honestly helped me learn so much! I have so many service dogs on my campus and I never knew that someone could have two service dogs. I have two individuals that live in my building with two service dogs a piece.
Along with a hospital many children’s libraries have therapy dogs come in
I got my dog through Paws 4 independence and they require the dog pass the AKC CANINE GOOD CITIZENSHIP TEST to get public access
Some programs do that but that’s to make sure the dog is ready since they train it themselves but it’s not required by law
@@VisualMoss I know it's not required by law but our training program does require ut and the head trainer is AKC certified

KOLE'S JOURNEY SERVICE DOG IN TRAINING
As it should be. Too many people claiming disabilities just to have a dog they claim to be a service dog so they can be obnoxious in public and put up self aggrandizing youtube videos.
exactly the fake service dogs are becoming a plague
Good way to go. Lot's of SD's dont have their CGC even though it has a focus more towards pets and basic obedience. Sadly, lot's of SD channels I watch, their dogs just from what I could see, would not pass a CGC (basic obedience)...which is why a lot of them likely don't do it. Lot's of pets pass though.....hhhmmm. :)
Me replaying the intro like 45 times
Ok..... im training my dog to be a service dog for anxiety and depression but idk were to get the papers or permission or vests for her... Does the psychologist give you the permission??
If you are disabled then I would talk to your Dr to see if they support it. Next know that you might need a letter if you live in no pet housing or since it's psych for air travel. As far as a vest I got mine from a well known service dog gear maker called jubaliees
you can get service dog vests from chewy, Amazon, or from a maker on etsy. you will need a note from your doctor, therapist, or psychiatrist saying you are disabled and need the dog.
However, there is NOT a certification, and anyone that tells you otherwise is trying to scam you.
Great video! Very helpful information about service dogs:)
Can you get a service dog for depression and anxiety?
I think you can
Yes you can, but 1 it has to be disabling and 2, usually sd's for Anxiety can usually make it worse. At least by what i was told.
X of Reality yes
Even if I needed a Service Dog and we have proof and my Psychologist and EMDR specialist has meet our 2 elderly well-behaved dogs at home and 4 cats and have given a documentation that both dogs we have worked with to help me in some forms of tasking for my CPTSD and won't hinder a Service Dog.
When I need a Service Dog to work with me outside of the house where EMS dogs cant go. I'm told after paying $$$$ upfront that they decide NO because they won't acknowledge my senior dogs regardless of the EMS documentation and are good behaved. I was even told by one it would be distractions for Service Dog despite my specialist seeing and knowing thats not true, we work with our two elderly dogs to help me and that still means nothing. I need a Service Dog to help me manage my CPTSD outside of the home more so than in home except for night terrors. I was told by another "surrender your dogs or wait till they are both dead before reaching back out to us for a Service Dog from them" I went into full CPTSD attack vomiting and severe migraine and partial disassociation couldn't believe I'd be told something like that from a Service Dog Facility it destroyed me emotionally and mentally to hear them say get rid of or wait till they die if you want a Service Dog through them, I was disheartened and disgusted and wanted to give up on getting a Service Dog even though I knew I needed one in order to live again outside of my home with my CPTSD. Why do that after charging $$$$ for applications and upfront skype fee they'd go and do such a thing. I'm 39 and am a Rescue Adoption Shelter Animal Advocate never thought to hear such monsterous words from a Service Dog Facility after giving them $$$$ of my money while trying to raise the 1st $5,000 needed to be put down to start if selected. How can a Service Dog Facility do that?
If the Service Dog Facility one of 5 we have wasted $$$$$ on application and intervies by 4 others who said no because they didn't acknowledge the documentation by my Pschologist and EMDR Specialist my 2 senior dogs were not an issue, if this 5th one says No I don't know what I'll do, and no we won't give up my beloved EMS pets, yet I'd have to give back $7,000 raised for my needed Service Dog if it doesn't work out. I don't want to wait till I'm 60 either to qualify based on this issue over EMS pets in house.
Thank you so much for clearing the myth that i can have a pit bull for a service dog
So if i have 2 diagnosed mental disability i can get a service dog and not an esa?? Im a little confused
this was two weeks ago so sorry if this comment is annoying lol. anybody with a diagnosis on a disability can qualify for an ESA with just a doctors note. to qualify for a service dog you need at least one mental or physical disability that prevents you from a major aspect in life (like talking, bending over, thinking, walking, eating, etc. the ADA defines it more clearly) so technically a lot of people can qualify for a SD but as a rule of thumb it should be bad enough to where you cant work or go to school
@@decay09 ok thank u
I live in Canada (in canada you NEED a written note from either a therapist or doctor with your diagnosis and approval of needing a Service Dog. Basically you have to be prescribed a service dog) I have my written approval for a psychiatric Service Dog but Im having trouble picking the best breed. I have a dog currently but he’s 7 (clearly to old to be trained and a mutt lol) I have narrowed my breed choices down to 4 main ones: German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Saint Bernard and Lab. I have done research on every breed and I am looking for a bigger dog not only to effectively alert to my disabilities and perform DPT but to help with mobility when/if needed. What would be the best breed choices based on your (or anyone else’s) experience owner training a SD? A lot of ppl I have asked have recommended a Shepherd but I have no experience with any of those breeds and Im worried that I will suck at owner training lol. Any advice is greatly appreciated 🙏🏻 Thanks!
Goldens are 100% the best choice for new handlers. They are easy to train and can be bred to have amazing work drive. Not to mention they are beautiful. If you want a not so common SD, I would chose a SB because of their size and work drive. GSDs are very floofy and require lots of exercise (like all dogs but GSDs typically require more)
Labs are also a great choice and they are like Goldens just minus the floof. Sorry I didnt see Labs in there when I read it 😂
karli rose Thank you for advice! It helps a lot 😁
Hunter Schmidt for my whole life i've always had golden retrievers. They are very good for families with children. BUT they die most of the Time from cancer, thats why they have the other name "cancer retrievers". They have problems with dysplasia etc. They have many genetic problems. For a Service dog i would recommend german shepherd. They are always the Best trained dogs.
I had no idea about that! I knew they were prone to Hip Dysplasia but not so strongly of cancer. Thank you for the advice!
My school is requiring certification for my service dog, I have a doctor that diagnosed me with GAD. Is the doctors note not enough??
They cannot do that if your in the US. They cant even ask for the Dr. Note. They can only ask for proof of vaccination.
Dezera Martinez you should get proof of vaccinations, and show them the ADA laws, if this was a private school keep in mind that they can reject you.
キアアラKeyara I have tried showing them the laws but my superintendent is saying that my GAD and PTSD is not a disability. He is saying I need to be either blind or have a seizure alert dog to be able to bring to school. It is a public school.
Dezera Martinez if you get a doctor confirmation but still deny you should be able to sue the superintendent for breaking federal law. But if you don’t want to sue you can tell them to look at the ADA laws saying that you cannot deny a service animal and that mental/ invisible disabilities do exist. You can tell them that you can practically sue him/her for breaking federal law. I’ve had my mom sue the principal of my old school for denying my service dog and asking illegal questions.
キアアラKeyara yes I have a doctors note. I have made a complaint with the ada but by the time I hear back from them I will already be graduated. I will have to look into a lawyer to consider suing. Thank you so much!
All these videos state that service dogs are allowed anywhere people are. The exception is religious buildings, and tribal lands. Both are exempt from ADA. Please look up these establishments before demanding entry.
My doctor and therapist had a talk with me about getting a service dog for my anxiety, depression, and eating disorders, bulimia and anorexia.. Im honestly terrified of getting one because it was a huge step for me to except i had a problem, it was an even bigger step actually going to a therapist, and im terrified of getting a service dog ( dont get me wrong i LOVE dogs) because i feel like people are going to know i have a problem, i feel like theyre going to think im crazy and lately ive been watching a lot youtube videos to help me cope with the fact that i might have a service dog in the near future. Any advice?...
wait wait so service dogs don’t need to be registered? or have special ID or paper? woah i’ve been living a lie thank you so much this helps me so much!!!
Gabby Herrera it depends on ur state like ik Canada needs registration
@@emersonkinnally8211 that's a country not a state
By law does diagnosed disability mean a person must be receiving disability and legally unable to work or can it include a diagnosed disabling condition that majorly effects the person? I am diagnosed With both PTSD and BPD,was looking into getting a service dog for physc but want to know if that trained dog (alerting me to triggered behavours or giving pressure therapy etc) would be, in terms of general public access protected under the law mentioned?
Yes, you can have a service dog for PTSD, as it does count as a disability and is very serious. The ADA does not limit what a disability is, as long as the disability a person clams to have effect's their day to day tasks, meaning it makes it hard for you to do everyday things such as go out in public, go to school, stand in large crowds, etc.
How do you talk to your doctor about getting the documentation declaring you disabled if they do not understand the impact that my diagnosis (chronic illnesses) have on my day to day life? What if they refuse to despite how much they affect my day to day life a service dog could benefit extremely?
get a doctor that understands you :)
Great video! 👍
Thank you for answering my question and helping me convince my parents to get me a service dog btw I'm your biggest fan
How did you get the money for your dog?? I know that you owner trained you SD, but I am looking for a program dog. I have tried fundraising on GoFundMe, but that didn't work. I have to make the money myself. :/ which I am ok with. I just need some advice on how to make some money other than getting a job. I already have one.
Brooke Johnson how old are you?
@@TheWebkinztimberwolf 17. why??

Brooke Johnson ur picture doesn't look like ur 17 lmao
How do you make a dog a service dog? How is it officially considered a service dog if it doesn’t need a license or paper to prove it is. I’m very interested in this. Do you just go to your doctor and they decide if you are able to get a service dog depending on your diagnosis?
Tren Tren training. you dont need a doctors note to bring a service dog into a public place. if you want to know more, i suggest straight up reading the ada lol it has every answer 😂
Could you link helpful videos on how to train the dog? I can't find many videos on it
I have a question....is Extreme Depression, General Anxiety and ADHD considered a disability if it stops me from going into public and stops me from attending school? My dad doesn’t believe in mental illness and he just wants me to go to school... my school is too much and I really can’t go and I’m in the progress of trying to move school, I’m 14, should I attempt to ask for a service dog?
if it disables you from doing major things in your life, like thinking or eating etc, then its a disability. the ADA law defines it a little more clearly but a rule of thumb is if you cant work or go to school, then its severe enough to qualify.
i am 17 and had to quit normal highschool and go for online school because of severe social anxiety, depression and other things. im lucky that i already own a dog who is a good candidate, and we will do public access when we are at a good enough spot in training.
i REALLY recommend the blog actuallyservicedogs.tumblr.com , there is a lot of good information there (especially in the FAQ) and reading through the answers to questions. i know somewhere on it is a specific post about convincing your parents about it too :)
Jackal thank you I’ll look into the blog :)

No I didn’t I’m just staying at someone’s house
Hi I have ADHD Anxiety trichotilomania dermotilimania and an OCD personality type I want and think I need a service dog but I’m 11 and I have a cat, the meds I take that actually help with anything have bad side effects and I still have anxiety attacks almost every day and even sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with them and one time I passed out from hyperventilating I have a therapist but I don’t think they are right for me not to mention they are 2 hours away even with breathing exercises my mom is the only one that can really quickly and successfully de escalate and stop my attacks I also have intrusive thoughts mild obsessions and compulsions anyway am I able to get a service dog? I’ve talked to my parents about it a little but haven’t really had a serious conversation because we are about to move and won’t be able to get one until then but we hope to move before 2019 or at the very very least early 2019 any advice?p.s I’ve already looked up the laws for qualifying and ownership/training and average costs for different things...
First of all, nobody is a medical professional. And if you're doctor think's you're disabled then you qualify for a service dog. You by law have to be disabled in order to qualify for a service dog. Also quick note you can be any age, religion, race, and ethnicity in order to have a service dog. Talk with you're doctor, if you don't like them change them. JS nobody here can tell you whether you qualify for a SD or not. It's not all about taking a dog everywhere, and it's certainly not fun.
I don't think u really need one
Would you recommend a service dog to stop self harming and panic attacks. I struggle with this a lot at school but teachers don't notice and do anything. My stress coping mechanisms are mostly scratching myself and not realising. Would you recommend a service dog to alert towards this.
Talk with a doctor about it
I do see a doctor but they do nothing just suggest apps which doesn't help during school as we can't use phones.
I don’t know if you have gotten help yet but you should definitely go to a better doctor. Since it’s been so long ago I hope you have gotten the help that you need
where are u from in West Virginia?!?! I live in wv and I was absolutely shocked when I heard you were from here!!
Oh my lord your almost at 20k!!!! When did this happen? Love ur vids :)
Can they deny service dogs or emotional support animals because of someone else’s allergy to fur or dogs in general?
Well an Emotional Support animal should not be in a public place. But no they cannot deny a service animal because of someone’s allergy. BUT you should still be respectful towards others if you have a Service animal
How can a dog know if you have a low or high blood sugar levels though?
MelLovesToDraw they can smell it, a friend of me has diabetes and she has a service dog. its amazing, there are dogs outside which can diagnose cancer by smelling

recently I've been considering looking into getting a service dog and I just want to thank you for making this video! it's very informative and helpful especially for someone such as myself who is only just beginning to gather information. I still have a lot of research to do as well as some conversations to have with my psychiatrist, but this along with the handful of articles I've read so far feels like a very good place to start! :)
how does logan paul have a service dog he doesn’t have a disability. and kong isn’t trained
It's a fake clearly. Really disappointing..
he may be disabled, but his dog is fake
He doesn't have a service dog.
Is it true that you have to be over 12 and over unless you have autism to have a service animal?
No
Would a SD help Misophonia? I have pretty bad Misophonia that makes me panic from the trigger sounds, it interferes with my day to day life and I don’t go a day without feeling the panicky feelings it gives me, I was researching it and as much as I read I got mixed results 😕
I read that it could lead me away from sounds that trigger it, but like I said I got mixed results and not sure what all it could do
My dog is an ESA that im trying to train to alert my nervousness and stop me when i scratch my hands or leg bounce.
But I'm only 11 so its super hard and if you have any advice then please give it to me now! 😄😍
Does my doc need to perscribe a service dog or do I just need a diagnosis?
I couls be wrong, but your doctor or therapist (?) needs to suggest one, or you need to bring it up to them and see if you're eligible. Somone please correct me if I'm wrong. I have been thinking about getting an SD or ESD for my anxiety, but I don't have a therapist yet. Yes, my family is working on that.
@@vie2402 If I remember correctly, your doctor should agree that a service dog would be beneficial to your treatment plan (someone with anxiety may have more problems with the attention they get from a dog), but you also have to be diagnosed with a disability.
You have to have a diagnosed disability and a doctor must know about the service dog because they are a treatment plan they need to have it on record. If you have a doctor that you see regularly you should ask them if a service dog would benefit you and they will add it to your treatment plan
This is false. Unless u will be needing a letter for no pet housing (or no pet deposit) or airlines, or maybe even a school or work, technically u don't have to have a letter by the ADA. U do have to have a diagnosed disability according to the ADA but your dog does not have to be "Recorded as a treatment plan". Because no insurance will pay for a SD so it doesn't matter if its "recorded" or not because insurance isn't monitoring it. And even when I went in to get my letter for housing, they just had a copy they print out for everyone. (Because of the Fair housing law it covers both SDs and ESAs under the same FHA Law, which I was really upset about, I had them specify at the botton of the letter he was a SD and not just a ESA. It took alot to get them to though but I fealt I needed the exact wording. but they just print out the same letter for everyone that needs a letter for housing). But unless you specifically will need somthing from your doctor, its not important for them to know immediately. Unless of course u wanted advice from them. But all it takes it a diagnosed disability that a task trained SD can help migrate. Also some programs and trainers might ask for a dr note. But technically if u didn't need anything from your doctor it doesn't matter if they know. My doctor didn't know right away about my dog, until he was trained enough to go with me and I moved out so then needed a letter. But because of my disabilities all my doctors where already on board with it so it was no problem getting the stuff I needed. But I knew what I needed and what would help me. Since insurance won't cover a SD, and so there is no "prescription" for them, it wasn't important for them to know right away. Maybe if I needed advice but I didn't. I already knew how my dog would beable to help me by alerting, tasking, and responding that I didn't need my doctors help deciding it. So it depends on your situation and how fast u need to talk to your doctor about it. If u want advice its always good to talk to them. But if your like me, know what u need, then if u have q diagnosed disabilitiy it's not a huge problem telling them right away unless u want to.
@@VisualMoss thank you 😊
Service dogs are not really allowed in most public places in my country sadly. They aren’t even really recognized.
It could also be a mini horse. While it’s less common it’s good for people who are severely allergic to dogs
What is the law like for being able to bring your service dog to school for you? Does your dog have to be registered or anything like that? Or is it a matter of talking to the school?
To have your service dog in school, it has to be included with your accommodations. To do this, your guardian has to set up a meeting with the school to create a 504 plan or an accommodation plan similar to that. If it is a public school or a school that receives state funding, they have to allow the dog. Unfortunately, if your at a private school, they can deny you. Hope this helps! I’m in the process of this right now.
What Tati Sailor said, and also service dog's aren't even required to be registered.

Can you get a service dog if you have really bad anxiety and panic attacks, and if you have self harm tendencies?
Yes, but you have to got diagnosed by a doctor or psychiatrist with a mental disorder such as G.A.D (generalized anxiety disorder) and P.D (panic disorder) which are the two that I have. Then you have to decide if your disorder is bad enough to be a disability. But even if you have a disorder like G.A.D or P.D, you should not just jump to service dog. Try therapy, medicine, coping kills, meditation and literally EVERYTHING else before you get a service animal. Please realize that training a service animal takes hours of days of months of years, and can be extremely mentally challenging with someone who already has stress disorders and such. It's also a huge responsibility. You should do months of research before getting a prospect to MAYBE become a service dog. And please realize that it is NOT as great as it seems to have a dog with you all the time... TRUST ME!

Does it cost money to get a service dog?
Joan Mcgilton yes, most programs (takes 1-3 years)you pay for the dog and training but there are a few you have to pay for training, that could lead up to 15,000 to 60,000$, then there’a owner training its less expensive (I don’t know how much since I didn’t owner train) but it can take 4-6 years.
キアアラKeyara thank you for the reply and taking time answering my question.
Joan Mcgilton no problem. :)
it takes about 1-3 years to train a service dog depending on what you need it to do :) some programs will place a dog for free. i did some math (for my mom lol) and for owner training they cost between $2,400-$24,500. for programs, they cost between $11,550-$38,600.
Would depression, panic attack, and social anxiety qualify for a service dog. Or if I have those disabilities and the dog is trained to defuse the emotions can they be a service dog? (Sorry if this was a confusing question) also is there a certain age the dog has to be a service dog, assuming they have training.
@@jalahalexandria1797 the question is for my bf not me and I don't think the attention of a service dog would give him an attack I know his triggers, it's more to do with the commotion (like crowds or a busy store(our city is a tourist attraction so it gets busy) )around him then the attention of people looking

Elissa Fall I think you should consult with a doctor and if they give you the green light go for it. But there are people that will legit harass you,. So if a doctor thinks it’s a good idea I say go for it. They know more than someone that doesn’t even know you lol.
Jalah Alexandria yeah I’ve had people make fun of me, follow me around, and try to hurt my service dog.
I mean I get that this is educational, but the eye rolling at some points really annoys me.

(example; service dogs that arent wearing a vest are pretty easily mistaken for pets and thats really understandable, there's no reason to be so rude about it)
one thing I dislike about the ADA is that people can’t ask for proof like a doctors note, so people can fake SDs a lot easier. I’m in Ontario and businesses are legally allowed to ask you for a doctors note which I feel should be more used.
liv uslenghi honestly, I am against that. that can put more stress on the handler to get that information and have to bring that with them everywhere. No thanks.
Anna and Sophie the Service Dog Yes I get that is why I probably see more fakes in the states then I do see where I live. Basically anyone can fake a SD in the U.S. And you should have a doctors note to begin with as it’s apart of your treatment so it should already be on file. I see non disabled people with trained dogs all the time and it’s so obvious, yet it could be prevented.
Anna and Sophie the Service Dog And who knows maybe you’re just defensive because you’re not legally disabled and just have a service dog because you just want one. idk u and many people have SDs who aren’t actually disabled & the US laws let people get away with this.
liv uslenghi 1) You shouldn’t just assume that just because I don’t want to share my disability with random strangers means I’m fake. That’s just rude and uncalled for.
2) don’t say I’m fake. I’m not and will not share personal info with someone like you. Not being defensive. It’s called privacy. You shouldn’t have a service dog if you’re going to harass other SD teams
Under AODA it talks about a grey area where you could potentially get a note for a symptom rather then an overall disability. So if you have a problem with panic attacks (but aren't formally diagnosed with a panic disorder) and your doctor/NP gives you a note for your dog to assist you with your panic attacks, under AODA, that counts as an SD.
It kinda make sense, because health care in Canada takes FOOOOOOOREVER. You want to see a specialist, you will be waiting until next year. It took me 9 months to get into one of my specialist. Coulda have trained an SD by then.
I have an emotional support dog but she is trained to lay on me during panic attacks, I just trained her myself. I live in MN and even the Mall Of America allows her in, (she's also 3 pounds so that may help?) I literally had no idea it wasn't legal to do this. Oops. 😂
I want a service dog :c
I have a question if you're willing to answer! My pittie Jace is a Therapy Dog. We trained him ourselves but he still had to go and take a test with the Alliance of Therapy Dogs in order to become a certified therapy dog to go into hospitals and nursing homes. Did you or will you have to take Cloud to take a test in order for her to become a certified Service Dog? Just asking out of curiosity! New subscriber and I love watching your videos with her
Emily Bosarge service dogs are not certified
some states have voluntary certification, and there is the CGC test, but it doesnt make them more "legit". :)
@@mckaylabehnke SHe said therapy dog and yes therapy dogs do need to be certified. Therapy dogs are not service dogs.
you dont have to be diagnosed with a disability.
Service Doggie respectfully, yes you do. service dogs are only for those who are disabled. they are accomodations for the disabled to be able to live a better life. diagnosis and disability do overlap, but you need to talk to your doctor to know if youre disabled :)
slidesandspoons, hmm maybe it just depends on where you live because where I live you don't need to be diagnosed.
Wrong, you do need to be diagnosed with a disability.
@@thepups2515 In the US yes you DO.
ELI ICD ok well where I live you don’t
She sounds a little money hungry. How many times did she say..... You can sue
Wow yeah i know shes disgusting.
Haha. It’s good knowledge, know your rights then people can’t push you around like a carousel. Makes you go crazy eventually.
But to many people take advantage of the flexibility of a service dog. I have so called service dogs come in and jump on other customers, jump on shelves and bite merchandise or lick toys. I never call someone out or kick out any service dog even if I call bs. but it's sad When you ask for payment for damages from there dog, they just start rambling on about service dog rights and threaten to sue you.
They can’t sue you if their dog ruined the merchandise because their dog is supposed to be trained to even be allowed in public. So in all honestly you couldn’t get in trouble. And you can kick them out. That’s also the problem with businesses is that they don’t recognize the dog isn’t an actual service dog and doesn’t kick people out.
vocaloid miku please kick out fake service dogs. it helps handlers so much! 💖
What about school? Like does the school have to agree?
Isis Moak at a public school, youre covered by the ada so its illegal for them to deny you. theyre considered part of your 504 plan (accomodation for disability or illness). with a private school, you arent covered by the ada so you can be denied. as far as that goes you may want to get a doctors note and show them vaccinations and paperwork (they may ask for registration, but you dont have to give it to them). for private schools i reccomend watching service angel percie, she went to a private high school. i hope this helps :)
My mom is sending me to therapy to get a recommendation for a service dog
Have you tried having therapy sessions, and medication and such before hand? you shouldn't just jump right in "a service dog is what I need" because though it seems great to have a dog with you all the time who's cute, AND helps you, it's not. Trust me. I would give anything to be able to have gotten better without a service dog. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love my dog and he is the best thing that's ever happened to me. But Service dog's are package deal. They bring many great things by helping you, but they also bring many unwanted things, like extra attention, having to deal with access issues, people staring, kids running up to you or talking to your dog, people judging you because you "don't like like you have a disability" (smh that one annoys me so much), people trying to start stuff with you, having fake service dog's bark at your real one, and such. Just make sure your ready for it.
Hello for your dog to be a service dog do you need any kind of regristration for him or her to be considered a service dog
No there is no certification or registration for service dogs
