Several people with service dogs have been prohibited from dining at Bombay Grill in Utah by the restaurant owner himself.

Missy Warwood, one of the customers, said that her 5-year old son has Down Syndrome and is accompanied by a service dog named Sage. The owner immediately told them to leave and said, “No dogs,” even after Warwood tried to educate him.

A group of veterans had the same experience. One of the veterans, Bernard, told Fox 13 that she wants the restaurant owner to understand the ADA laws, and that the business is not just rejecting the dogs, but also the persons with disabilities.

The Fully Rescue Educational Development (FRED) Program pairs dogs from the PAW Animal Shelter in Fort Madison and inmates at the Mount Pleasant Correction Facility.

Inmates who show positive behavior are qualified to become handlers. Their task is to train the dogs from the shelter using techniques like those of Cesar Milan. The program is aimed at correcting the dogs’ behavioral problems so that they can be suitable for adoption.

One of the inmates named Darren was able to train 14 dogs since the FRED program was launched in 2017. He was able to train Syri, a dog which he described as “scared to death and wouldn’t have anything to do with anybody.” Another inmate named Zach spoke emotionally of the relationship he developed with a brown male pitbull named Hooch. He says that Hooch is his saving grace.

Wright, one of the people who launched the program, said, “I think it has made a huge difference in the environment here. You see that happy talk and people are petting them, and it just brings a human touch back into the place.”

Did you know that seizure detecting dogs can detect seizures 45 minutes before they actually happen? Just recently, scientists discovered that these dogs are able to use their sense of smell. However, what we don’t understand yet is the exact thing they’re smelling.

Other than that, we know that seizure alert dogs are service dogs, and as service dogs, they’re able to remind their handlers to take their medications, help them reach a safe place, and ask for help ahead of time.

In one study, 100% of the participants reported a higher quality of life with a seizure response dog.

While most people have dogs as pets, Ken and Joyce Diehls have miniature horses. The couple owns 17 miniature horses, and is one of the few breeders in Janesville, Wisconsin, that people reach out to when looking for miniature horse pets. Ken and Joyce Diehls owned their first mare back in 1983.

According to the Diehls, miniature horses have a wide array of talents. Miniature horses can serve as guide animals, are able to pull carts and buggies, participate in contests and competitions, and most importantly, serve as service animals. They also have longer life spans and need less food and space than regular horses.

Joyce Diehl said, “Most of all, they make a dear friend.”

It’s no secret that nurses are often subject to stress due to the physical, mental, emotional, and social aspects of their work. Animal-assisted therapy from organizations like Happy Tails helps by regularly visiting places where nurses work such as hospitals, hospices, and assisted living facilities.

Kaylee Simon, LMSW, an Atlanta-based therapist, says that she totally supports the idea of nurses being visited by dogs for a day. She believes that pet therapy benefits everybody – patients and health care workers alike. Some of Kaylee’s clients happen to be nurses. She offers them therapy for depression, trauma, abuse, grief, and more.

In her own practice, Kaylee employs her pet named Riley. Riley’s role is to calm her clients down during sessions. She says, “It’s proven that when you’re petting a dog or cat you release serotonin… Also, your heart rate decreases and so does your anxiety, just from the motion and the actual petting of the dog.”

Meet Dylan, an 8-year old boy who was diagnosed as autistic and developmentally delayed. Although Dylan is non-verbal and can become overstimulated, what keeps him grounded is his love for animals.

Mikayla Salinas, Dylan’s mother, recently found out about a non-profit agency called 4 Paws for Ability that trains and places task-trained service dogs for children with disabilities. Mikayla knew that the organization would be perfect for her son. The problem is that training for the dog could cost anywhere from $40,000-$60,000.

To cover $17,000 of the cost, she set up a fundraiser on Mighty Cause. On the page, you can read more about Dylan’s story and how your help can transform his life!
