What Does It Mean To Be Certified?
It means your dog has been trained to perform the work or tasks as a service dog.
The primary purpose of certification is to ensure that your dog is fully trained and able to perform seizure alert service dog work and that you, the handler, understand how to lead your Assistance Dog/Service Dog through everyday situations, such as going to a store, a park, a hospital, a care home or any other public place.
Please note that while seizure alert dogs can provide invaluable assistance and support to those with epilepsy, it’s important to remember that they are not a cure-all. Seizure frequency and severity can vary from person to person, so even with a seizure alert dog, some seizures may still occur without warning. It’s also important to have a solid plan in place for how to care for your dog during and after a seizure, as they may be disoriented or tired afterward. If you’re considering getting a seizure alert dog, be sure to do your research and talk to your doctor or epilepsy specialist first.
