1. What is an assistance animal? An assistance animal is a type of animal that provides assistance or support to individuals with disabilities. There are different types of assistance animals, including service animals and emotional support animals. Service animals are trained to perform specific tasks for their owners, such as guiding people who are blind or have low vision, alerting people who are deaf or hard of hearing to sounds, or providing physical support and stability for people with mobility impairments. Emotional support animals, on the other hand, provide emotional support and companionship to individuals with mental or emotional disabilities, without necessarily undergoing any specific training.
