Information
At Service Dog Certifications, our goal is to minimize discrimination and persecution for handlers and their animals. Know your rights and stop the harassment of you and your service dog.
Airplane training for service dogs
Service Dog Certifications does not certify or authorize anyone to use a Service Animal — nor is certification required by law. The privilege to use a Service or Assistance Animal is granted, under the law, by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and local governments.
Service Dog Certifications does not endorse the fraudulent use of our certifications and registration.
Our Services and Mission
We understand that owning a service animal or emotional support animal is a necessity for some people out there. We hope to make their lives easier by answering questions and providing information about service dogs and emotional support animals. Don’t get harassed and hassled. Know your rights.
Training and Behavior Standards Agreement
While Service Dog owners are allowed to verbally state their animal is a Service Animal for public access, many individuals find that having a way to say they have accepted further training and behavior standards, while not required by law, Service Dog Certifications can help minimize discrimination and accessibility issues while keeping disability information private. This is especially important for disabled individuals who use a Service or Emotional Support Dog to help with disabilities that are not visible to others, such as epilepsy, deafness, multiple sclerosis and other conditions not visible to the human eye.
Our goal is to help reduce abuse of the ADA by requiring our Registrants to understand the laws. Intentionally misrepresenting an animal as a Service Animal for any reason is not only unethical, it is also in violation of federal and local laws. Service Dog Certifications does not endorse the use of fake service animals in any capacity.

TESTIMONIALS
My landlord use to bully me about my emotional support animal. Service Dog Certifications informed me about rules associated with emotional support animals. Now I live with my ESA, Biscuit, without any worry.
Service Dog Certifications promptly responded to all my questions and was extremely helpful during the whole process. Thanks for everything!
I have been able to travel with my service animal stress free after getting help from Service Dog Certifications.
I have a disability that is not “obvious”. The service dog ID card helps me show people that I need my service dog without having to explain my disability to them.
We can take our Buford everywhere we go without being harassed anymore. The identification cards help us resolve any issues before it becomes an issue. Thanks!!!

What do you need in order for your service dog to be able to board the airplane with you?
If you do a little research on the issue of traveling in the air with the service animal, you will see that airline travel is not necessarily a “protected,” event although most carriers are accommodating service animals (as long as they are legitimate). Each carrier has their own rules and no thanks to the many “offenders” that have been trying to get creatures like peacocks on board haven’t helped our cause/needs. BE VERY CAREFUL TOO THAT SOME CARRIERS HAVE BREED RESTRICTIONS (even if the breed is not 100% of your service animal, regardless of the documentation. If it has any “pit” bull in it, it is unlikely to be allowed and a lot of agent don’t know the difference between a boxer. So have your Vet paperwork if it is not a “pit,” but a breed that could be mistaken.
Question so my service dog is a pitbull, can they still deny me? He knows trained tasks, so he’s not an esa.
What are the steps that we need to take to get a Emotional Service Dog? I know the first step is a letter from a particular doctor. However, what other steps are there after that step is done.
Also, do you know any good companies that sell certified Emotional Service Dogs in Florida?
Thank You
I’m a caregiver for disabled parent and I want to train my dog to recognize and/or alert us of seizures, can you please recommend where to get information on how to train at home. Thank you
If you’re thinking of getting the dog trained by a professional, I’d suggest using Google to search for professional trainers located in your area. Or you can follow training guidelines and books if you want to do the training yourself. With persistence and time, I’m sure you can achieve your goal.
