Making a Difference...Changing Lives!
Blue Ridge Assistance Dogs, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing specially selected and professionally trained Assistance Dogs and Social/Therapy Dogs to individuals with disabilities.
Assistance Dogs
Assistance Dogs have become an integral part of many people’s lives — greatly increasing their mobility and overall quality of life.
Since these dogs help people in their daily lives, it’s common to see them in grocery stores, restaurants, malls, etc. Whenever an Assistance Dog is in public and has a vest, cape, backpack, or harness on, it is working and should never be interrupted or disturbed. Please always ask the person’s permission before talking to or touching a working dog. If they say it is okay to pet the dog, do it very briefly so that you do not distract the dog.
Assistance Dogs help people with physical disabilities accomplish daily tasks that would otherwise be fatiguing or even impossible alone. By enhancing their mobility, service dogs quickly become valued partners. In addition, Assistance Dogs also serve to provide emotional support and companionship.
Blue Ridge Assistance Dogs is a 501(c)3 organization.
