Experience

The writing team at Service Dog Certifications is made up of folks who really know their stuff when it comes to disability laws and assistance animals. Many of our writers and editors have service dogs themselves and share insights from their own experiences. All of us have a passion for disability rights and animals. While we offer products and services for purchase, our main goal in our publications is to spread unbiased and accurate knowledge about service dog rights. We pride ourselves on promoting responsible service dog ownership and setting the facts straight on myths that persist in the world of service dogs. We advocate for all service dog handlers and provide educational material to help you advocate for yourself and your service dog.
