What’s the difference between an Emotional Support Animal, a Therapy Dog, and a Service Dog?
Therapy Dogs and their companions are a dynamic duo trained to spread joy and healing through their special bond and interaction with people. These furry therapists, often the beloved pets of their companions, join them on their visits to various locations. While Therapy Dogs aren't granted public access by default, they can work their magic once they receive prior authorization and help others pawsitively everyday. Service animals are dogs individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Under the American Disabilities Act, State and local governments, businesses, and nonprofit organizations that serve the public generally must allow Service Animals to accompany people with disabilities in all areas of the facility where the public is allowed to go. (www.ada.gov) Emotional support animals are defined as a dog’s mere presence providing comfort to an individual. Emotional support animals are not specifically trained to mitigate a disability.

Matthew Fike’s Beginning Foundations dog training course is fantastic. He does an excellent job teaching not just the dogs, but the owners, making the training easy to understand and apply. The class focuses on the core skills every dog needs while building a stronger bond between dog and handler. Matthew is patient, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what he does. I saw a big improvement in my dog and highly recommend his training! 🐾
Our instructor Matt was such a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable and obviously loves dogs. He helped me and my rescue husky learn some very advanced skills during this training. Thank you Matt for making every class so fun!
Great program, staff. True blessing to the community.
Staff couldn't be any nicer. My dog loves coming to train and has improved immensely. Thank you Michaels Angels Paws staff.
