The first step is to consider whether your puppy is a good candidate. He or she should enjoy being touched by strangers, is friendly towards all kinds of people, and can remain calm in any situation.
If your puppy has these qualities, you can start training him or her in preparation for the future. Some behavior training ideas you can try include the following:
- Sit politely to allow a stranger to pet him/her
- Sit down on command and remain in place
- Come when called
- Walk through a crowd without reacting negatively to anyone
- Behave well even if they’re away from you for a short time

Finally, we present to you our book entitled, “ASSISTANCE ANIMAL LAWS: LEARN YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING SERVICE ANIMALS, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS, THERAPY PETS, AND OTHER DOGS, CATS, AND ASSISTANCE ANIMALS” to provide you with a complete education on assistance animals.
