Service animals
perform some of the functions and tasks that the individual with a disability
cannot perform for him or herself. "Seeing eye dogs" are one type of service
animal, used by some individuals who are blind. This is the type of service
animal with which most people are familiar. However, there are many different kinds of service animals
that assist persons with many other kinds of disabilities in their day-to-day
activities. A few examples include:
