Please Ignore Service Dogs - Catherine Pfeifer

. .

Résumé :
Catherine Pfeifer is married to Paul, a deaf man whose service dog Nina has been a lifesaver. But Nina's presence out in public often provokes a multitude of questions from otherwise well-meaning people, enough of them to have inspired Catherine to publish Please Ignore Service Dogs, a guidebook on the do's and don'ts of service animals....

Sommaire:

When it comes to interacting with a service dog in public, it's a simple enough proposition. Please ignore service dogs!

You'll find this and other rare gems of advice in this entertaining book on a little-known but important part of our culture: the trusty service dog. These animals, specifically trained to perform necessary services that allow their human partners to live safely and independently, are often misunderstood. In Please Ignore Service Dogs, you'll learn why these guidelines ought to be followed:

- Do not distract the dog.

- Do not touch the dog.

- Do not bother the dog's partner (who is just trying to get through their day).

- If you are a business owner, please limit your questions to Is that a service dog? and What service do they provide?

- If you see a service dog without a handler, follow it because their partner may need help.

Please Ignore Service Dogs covers what service animals are, what they are not, how they are trained, ADA requirements, and more, told with real-life stories and examples-everything you've ever wanted to know about service dogs. Whether you're considering acquiring one, find yourself regularly interacting with them, or just want to know more about them, you'll find Please Ignore Service Dogs to be a valuable source of information.
