About the Holiday

Assistance Dog Day is to make the public more aware of assistance dogs. Most people are familiar with guide dogs for the blind, but there are hearing dogs for those with hearing problems and service dogs for people with other disabilities. These dogs help to improve the life of people that would be dependent on others by giving them more freedom. There are many organizations all over the world that train these special dogs.
