September is National Service Dog Month! This year we will have a student with a trained and certified service dog joining our Black Knight Family. The service dog will be wearing a vest and will be leashed at all times. When he is wearing his vest, he is working. Please do not pet or give attention to a working service dog as it may distract them from their important task.
Learn more about how service dogs are trained, what makes them different from a pet, and what types of tasks they can perform to assist their handlers by clicking here: https://canine.org/service-dogs/service-dog-month/
