Service Dog Assembly Service Dogs of Virginia will be hosting an assembly on December 7.  Their organization trains dogs for people with severe Type I diabetes, people confined to wheelchairs, and children on the autism spectrum. The information will focus on what the dogs are capable of doing for a person by describing and demonstrating. There will be a Q&A at the end and the presenter will ask questions during the presentation to ascertain what some children may already know. For example, what is the difference between a therapy dog and a service dog or what is a guide dog? Also, teachers’ questions will be welcomed.
