Service dogs are really amazing in the way they help people cope with their lives. Service dog jobs range from seeing-eye dogs for the blind, hearing dogs for the deaf, mentally-challenged people that get visits and learn skills from a service dog, and so much more.

You are familiar with the service dogs that work alongside of police officers and firemen, but there are service dogs that visit senior citizens to cheer them up and service dogs that assist security guards.

Some service dogs are in charge of assisting in search and rescue missions and other work in winter conditions to aid in finding skiers that may have been hurt in an avalanche.

Service dogs really do not always get the recognition they deserve, but to those people they help, they are heroes.
