Welcome

Welcome to The Service Dog Daily, where it is our hope that we can provide you the latest news and resources in the service dog community. Our ultimate desire is to create a positive community for SD teams as well as the public where we can raise awareness while educating on why they are important, what separates them from other types of assistance animals and the appropriate public etiquette.

In order to encourage and inspire change, we must be the one to initiate it in a positive, passionate and contagious way. We've all had those days, where we are out with our service dog, and just want to scream in frustration with the constant distractions and what often feels like ignorance. Heres the problem, How can people learn to understand what they are doing is wrong and why if we don't take a moment to calmly and kindly explain the right way to go about it. Yes, its hard. Yes, I've had days where I have not wanted to do it, but the stores we frequent, and the customers we've seen multiple times are learning and sharing.

Together, lets make this a better and safer world for service dog teams and lets educate the public in a way that they are wanting to share it with others.

In addition to sharing news stories on service dog happenings, praising things done right in the situation and suggesting how a situation could have been better handled, we are looking for YOU to supply us with information.

To many, they believe service dogs are only for the visually or hearing impaired. They have no idea the other struggles they can assist with like autism, epilepsy, diabetes, heart issues, PTSD, rape victims and more. For those of you willing to share your story, we will be creating a questionaire and asking you to submit a few photos of you and your SD so that we can do a story a week and eventually a story a day, highlighting the amazing work that these dogs do.

We are also looking for nonprofit service dog organizations to reach out to us with information about yourselves so that we can promote you and the types of dogs you train with our goal being to create a running resource list of service dog programs in each state across the country. We will also be working on a list of all state laws as they vary from state to state.


As time goes on we will also be working with some of you to create change within your state to pass laws protecting legitimate service teams and prosecuting fake service teams. We are strong advocates for the needs of a national standard and certification and a large forum and discussion needs to take place to make this happen sooner rather than later.

The Service Dog Daily will be doing its research, and we will ensure each post shared in inline with our vision, morale and ethical standards. Please understand, that this blog or facebook page will never bash, attack or promote negativity of any kind. Further, for those that can't refrain from profanity, negativity and calls to shut down pages or target pages, you will be blocked. Not only are there two sides to every story, we firmly believe in approaching all things with a positive attitude to achieve the best outcome for all involved.

We hope that you will follow us, we encourage you to share your stories, your suggestions, your questions and more.

Thank you and more soon!
