The American's With Disabilities (ADA) definition of "service animal" reads as follows:
A "service animal means any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability. Other species of animals, whether wild or domestic, trained or untrained, are not service animals for the purposes of this definition."
Furthermore, "A service dog must be individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service dogs under the ADA."
There are 3 categories of Assistance Dogs for individuals with disabilities:
-Guide Dogs, also known as Seeing Eye Dogs, are trained to guide a blind or partially blind person around obstacles to get where they need to go.
-Hearing Dogs also known as Signal Dogs are alert to sounds that a deaf or hearing impaired individual cannot hear.
-Service Dogs are dogs who are trained to help people with disabilities other than visual or hearing impairments. Some examples of such needs are mobility, psychiatric, and medical alert for diabetes, seizures or other conditions.
-Facility dogs are trained to provide services to agencies that serve our community, such as child advocacy centers, police departments and legal services.
