Key points include:

  • Service Dogs: Specially trained to assist individuals with disabilities, performing specific tasks such as guiding the visually impaired or detecting medical conditions. They are protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

  • Therapy Dogs: Provide comfort and emotional support in settings like hospitals or schools, but they are not trained for specific medical tasks. They do not have the same legal access rights as service dogs.

  • Emotional Support Animals (ESAs): Offer companionship to individuals with mental health conditions, helping to alleviate symptoms. They are not trained for specific tasks and have limited legal protections compared to service dogs.
