Service dog breeds–if you’re getting one, you need to pick the right one. They have different temperaments and work out in the field differently.

Perhaps you’re interested in getting a service dog but don’t know which breed would suit you. While it can depend on your needs, there are a few basic things that you should know so that you make the right decision.

Here’s our guide on how to pick the right service dog breed for you.

Size and Activity Level

The best service dog breeds are those that match the size and activity level of their owner. For example, if you are a small person with a disability that requires a lot of mobility, you will want a small dog breed that is also very active.

Some of the best small dog breed options for this type of owner include the miniature poodle, Yorkshire Terrier, and Jack Russell terrier.

If you are a larger person with a disability that limits your mobility, you will want a larger breed that is also relatively active. 

Temperament and Training

When looking for a service dog breed, it is important to consider the temperament of the dog and how well it will be able to be trained.

Some breeds are more independent and may not be as responsive to training, while others are very eager to please and quick learners.

It is important to find a breed that will fit well with your lifestyle and personality to ensure a successful partnership. With patience and the right training methods, almost any dog can be a wonderful service dog.

If you want to get more info on buying service dogs, check out Service Dogs School of America.

Service Dog Breeds by Disability

Some dogs are better suited for those with physical disabilities, while others are better suited for those with mental or emotional disabilities.

There are even service dog breeds that can be trained to perform specific tasks, such as providing seizure assistance or guide dogs for the blind.

When you pick a service dog breed, it is important to consider your specific needs and what you are looking for in a dog. With so many different breeds to choose from, there is sure to be a service dog breed that is perfect for you.

Cross-Breeding for Service Dogs

Some people prefer to choose a purebred dog, while others prefer to crossbreed with the benefits of service dogs.

If you crossbreed a Labrador retriever with a poodle, you may end up with a dog that is good at retrieving and has a low-shed coat. Another benefit of crossbreeding is that it can help to preserve the health of the breeds involved. 

Learn How to Pick the Right Service Dog Breeds for You

In order to pick the right service dog breed for you, it is important to consider your specific needs and lifestyle. There are a variety of service dog breeds to choose from, so make sure to do your research in order to find the perfect match.

If you have any questions or concerns, make sure to speak with a professional in order to get started on your service dog journey.
