Read on to learn how they improve their owner\u2019s quality of life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Understanding Mobility Impairments<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mobility impairment has a profound effect on people\u2019s lives. Many people take movement for granted but once we become limited by an injury, we understand how it can impact everyday life. It can also cause depression and anxiety which take a toll on one\u2019s mental health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several types of permanent and temporary impairments may require a mobility assistance dog. Here are some examples:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Arthritis, joint, spinal and muscle disorders<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cardiac disorders that can lead to balance issues<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Brain injuries<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Neurological disorders<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Multiple sclerosis<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chronic migraines<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fibromyalgia<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cerebral palsy<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Spinal Bifida<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Vertigo<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Side effects of medication<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Coordination issues<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>How Service Dogs Assist With Mobility Challenges<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An assistance pet can handle many service dog tasks for their owner. Here are a few examples:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pull a wheelchair<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Provide support for balance<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Assist a handler in getting into their wheelchair<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Retrieving items including mobility assistance devices<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Protect owners if they fall in public<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Help handlers get up from a fall<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bring handlers medication<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Open and close doors and draws<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Turn lights on and off<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Press buttons including doorbells, elevator buttons, and keypads on a phone to dial emergency services<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Notify others if their handler falls or experiences an emergency<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Helps their handler get to a safe place after a fall or a bout of dizziness<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cover their handler with a blanket to regulate their temperature<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Training Service Dogs for Mobility Assistance<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mobility dog training is highly specialized because dogs must learn basics such as socializing and avoiding aggressive behavior. They will also receive specific training depending on their owner&#8217;s needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Service dogs typically begin training when they are around six months old. However, they can\u2019t fully perform as a mobility service dog until they are two.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">They retire when they are about eight. At this age, they may be unable to provide many of the service dog tasks they performed when they were younger.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many handlers keep their dogs after they retire. However, some agencies require handlers to return dogs after retirement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Owners must also consider the best mobility service dog breeds. Dogs that respond well to training include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">German Shepherds<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dobermans<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Newfoundlands<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Standard Poodles<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rottweilers<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bernese Mountain Dogs<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assistancedogsinternational.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Assistance Dogs International<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> plays a key role in mobility dog training. They set a standard for training, assistance acquisition, and partnership. They also help with finding a service dog and you can also use their website to find service dogs for the disabled in your area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Do Mobility Dogs Need to Wear Special Equipment?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are no required mobility devices for dogs and they do not have to wear ID tags, vests, or harnesses. However, many handlers use a harness for their dogs because it helps maintain balance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Living With a Mobility Service Dog<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most handlers enjoy a higher quality of life after adopting a service dog because the dog helps them lead a more independent, fulfilling lifestyle. They also provide companionship which reduces the anxiety and depression often linked to mobility impairments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The care a mobility service dog provides is a two-way street. Owners must also care for their pets to ensure they are happy and healthy and provide optimal service. This includes taking them to the vet, feeding them quality food, and ensuring they exercise to get the mental and physical stimulation they require.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mobility service dogs assist individuals with mobility issues. They help them perform basic tasks and assist in emergencies allowing their handlers to enjoy more independent lifestyles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Justice Speaks provides more information for those considering service dogs for mobility impairments. We advocate to ensure handlers and dogs are treated with respect as well as overseeing workplace compliance and teaching school-aged children how to act in front of service dogs and handlers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/justice-speaks.org\/contact-us\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact us<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to learn more about what we\u2019re doing to change the status quo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Service dogs serve many purposes.
