Service Dog Training by Service Members/Veterans: Reflections on the Need for Empirical Evidence

Year: 2015

Type: article

Abstract: Five members of an interdisciplinary team reflect on the development of a service dog training evaluation designed for service members/veterans with PTSD. We describe the process of working together as a team to learn the principles of dog training and the practicalities of designing a human-animal intervention in order to generate empirical evidence of the human-animal bond.
