August 1 - 7 is International Assistance Dog Week. Assistance dogs can dramatically transform the lives of their human partners by serving as their companion, helper and friend. We want to thank all of the assistance dogs (and their trainers) this week. The life-changing effect these dogs have on the people they serve cannot be overstated. Many people with service dogs have debilitating physical or mental disabilities and these dogs can give a person back their independence. Thank you service dogs!
