Thread: Service Dogs
Skye most service dogs are actually trained by their owners. There is actually very little in the way of outside supportive services for Service Dog training and the majority of it is for common issues like blindness. The Americans With Disabilities Act however doe not require official training from an outside source in order for your dog to be recognized as a Service Dog. As long as you can work with your dog to assist you in your medical needs then it can be considered a Service Dog. Because you do live in a place that is not friendly to Pit Bulls you should undertake this ASAP. If you can show your dog is an actual Service Dog then it can not be seized even in places that do not allow Pit Bulls. Federal law trumps local law. If your dog is a Service Dog and they seize it you can then carry a legal suit against them under the Americans With Disabilities Act.
