A SERVICE DOG BECOMES CERTIFIED BY PASSING THE ADI PUBLIC ACCESS TEST BEFORE IT IS MATCHED TO A POTENTIAL DISABLED VETERAN. EACH VETERAN IS EVALUATED BEFORE ACCEPTANCE INTO THE PROGRAM. ONCE ACCEPTED TO RECEIVE A SERVICE DOG, THE DOGS ARE PICKED FOR A VETERAN THROUGH OBSERVATION, EVALUATION, AND THE VETERAN/DOG ABILITY TO WORK AS A TEAM. DURING 2019, THERE WERE 85 DOGS IN THE PROGRAM, AND 39 DOGS WERE PLACED WITH QUALIFIED VETERANS AND CERTIFIED AS ADI SERVICE DOGS OR COMPANION DOGS.
