Frist off alot of old timers, Know I respone for LMM.( Cuz her frist & only language is ASL)
LMM has a Service /seizure/hearie dog
I have translated this topic to LMM. Both LMM & my reply is here.
Frist when you train your own dog. don't mean afterwards you can take them everywhere you go. After you have train him/her you need to have them cerf. through AKC. They will send you a card showing you dog is a service dog. Because "IF" you don't have them cerf. someone refuse your service. You take them to court you don't have a leg to stand on under the ADA laws.
O.k. Now about service/pet dog's learning ASL.
Frist they learn SEE. Then it takes yrs for them to learn ASL. Same w/ some people.
ASL can & will confuse a dog.
The words sit ,good girl, pretty girl, no, yes,eat, bathroom, etc.... Yes may be ASL but not in ASL oder in SEE order.
LMM service dog does know & still learn the ASL order. We had to teach her service dog the ASL order for LMM. She knows over 200 ASL in ASL order and over 400 word all together. Yes this have taken yr on the ASL order part.
