ADW assistance dogs learn a minimum of 90 commands and are placed with clients to help overcome physical mobility and psycho-social challenges caused by disease, stroke or trauma. Seizure dogs alert their owners to possible onset of seizure, and social therapy dogs work with individuals or groups offering avenues for increased socialization to challenged lives. ADW client/recipients have diverse ethnic backgrounds, financial means and ages, from 5 to 95 years old.
