This, of course, is very important for those of us who have difficulties leaving our homes and apartments, but who can handle going places with the emotional support of a dog.
SOME PEOPLE may already own a dog who gives you tons of love and affection, who makes life worth living, but IF you want a dog that can accompany you in public, that dog needs to meet certain behavioral standards.
Even in the selection and training of Professionally Trained SERVICE Dogs, it is very difficult to take a tiny puppy and predict which ones will eventually become successful Service Dogs and which ones will flunk out and have to become "just family pets".
Some training agencies are beginning to search for candidate dogs among younger adult dogs found in dog shelters. If you are looking for an EMOTIONAL SUPPORT DOG that you will be able to vest-up and take out in public to accompany you virtually everwhere, then this can help you SELECT an appropriate dog to be your companion.
This way of testing dogs was discovered via a professionally conducted study and produced high percentages of appropriate dogs who could be trained to the high level of a Service Dog. A dog passing this test will make a superior Emotional Support Dog for you.
Next Post will be the test with the PASS/FAIL criteria.
