Aussie Pooch Mobile discount for all Service Dogs!
Did you know that Aussie Pooch Mobile now offer 25% off our classic hydrobath for all registered Service Dogs? This discount is for any registered Service Dog in Australia on a 4 weekly basis! The Aussie Pooch Mobile Dog Wash & Grooming philosophy of ‘We Care’ not only relates to cleaning and caring for dogs. Our philosophy is also strongly tied to caring and helping the community. Aussie Pooch Mobile has worked closely with Variety the Children’s Charity raising funds for Empower Assistance Dogs since 2007 but we wanted to be able to give back even more. These amazing dogs do so much for physically challenged persons. That is why we wanted to be able to give them the pamper and attention they deserve.
“I know I speak for all Aussie Pooch Mobile franchisees in saying that we are so fortunate to be doing something we love that we want to be able to give back to the community and these incredible dogs,” says founder, Chris Taylor.
Different types of Service Dogs
Guide dogs
Guide dogs are trained to take directional instructions and find a suitable travel path. They also alert you to changes in ground levels. Further more, guide dogs can help you to avoid obstacles at head height, avoid oncoming traffic, and go around obstacles. And they can even find objects for you.
Hearing dogs
Hearing dogs are trained to alert you to specific sounds in the home, such as a phone ringing, an alarm sounding, or a baby crying. Furthermore some hearing dogs also work outside the home, alerting you to specific sounds in public settings and vehicles. Instead of barking, hearing dogs get your attention by touch (such as a nose-nudge or pawing) and then they lead you to the source of the sound.
Assistance dogs
Assistance dogs are trained to perform a range of tasks and behaviours for people with a disability. They can also be trained to help people with post-traumatic stress disorder, to access and participate in the community. Some assistance dogs know more than 50 assistive tasks, some of which include carrying items up and down stairs, opening and closing doors, alerting family members or alerting for help plus many, many more.
The above information on Guide, Hearing and Assistance dogs was taken from the Queensland government website.
