On Thursday, November 11, 2021, a group of therapy dogs and their owners from the Guiding Eyes for the Blind puppy raising program visited Richard Montgomery High School. A therapy dog is a dog trained to show affection, comfort and kindness to everyone, and they are “commonly seen in nursing homes, schools, courtrooms and hospitals,” quoted from Clovernook. These dogs are certified and trained by therapy dog organizations and volunteer with their owners to help improve the lives of others. Many will confuse therapy dogs with service dogs, but whereas therapy dogs are tasked with providing emotional support, service dogs are specifically trained to assist a person with a disability and are therefore guaranteed access to all public places that may be prohibited to therapy dogs. Service dogs serve a wide range of disabilities, from being guide dogs for the visually impaired to alerting their owner of an oncoming seizure.
