Dogs are amazing creatures with a great sense of smell and incredible hearing. They’re also very loyal, and they like helping people. Because of all that, dogs make great service animals.
Dogs work in a wide variety of fields. Some dogs help sniff out bombs, while others work as guide dogs or medical assistance dogs. By the time these dogs begin working, they’re very well-trained and well-behaved. But when they start training, they’re just puppies. And like many puppies, these service dogs are a bit goofy, and they’re absolutely adorable. Here are some of the most heartwarming photos of service puppies who are just beginning their training.
