Require education about assistance dogs at school and workplaces

Closed 40 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the Government to ensure that people are educated about assistance dogs and their roles in school and at work so that those with assistance dogs feel safer in school and in the workplace.
This could include how service dogs can provide assistance in different situations. For example, people should be educated how service dogs provide assistance during medical emergencies as well as the correct terminology to refer to them.
