I think that soldiers should be able to get their dogs when they leave the army. One reason is after soldiers leave the army they usually leave because of an injury, and without their dog they could get depressed and usually get more from being depressed, and their dog could help them with their problem.

Those are my reasons why dog handlers should be able to keep their dogs.
The dogs in the army are trained to do whatever their handler says so if their handler get injured there dog could help them with him or hers problem. Soldiers could die from depression if they don’t

Dogs have impacted the lives of 44% of American families and homes. People use dogs for much more than just a family friend.

It can be a companion, an aide, or both. Pet dogs are loyal and make wonderful company, and an emotional support dog creates bountiful joy, but a service dog is much more. A service dog not only serves the same role as a pet, but creates a safer environment for its owner. Without the service dog it would be much harder for the owner to get around on a daily basis indecently. However service dogs and their owners are discriminated against because people are skeptical of the dog’s legitimacy, but instead the service dogs and their owners should be respected and treated as
Most people are familiar with service dogs and have seen them in action. Animal-assisted therapy is similar service animals in that an animal-human healing partnership is being created. However, the difference is that therapy pets are typically used to treat a mental disability whereas people with physical disabilities use service dogs to help them in many ways.

Pitbulls should be allowed as pets. They are a symbol of pride. According to the text it states in paragraph three “Pit bulls became a symbol of American pride, and their image was used on posters to recruit soldiers during World War One.” This practically means that the pit bulls are someone that was in the armed forces which is a dog serving for us and helping the soldiers.
With all sides of the argument considered I believe that dogs should not be allowed in the workplace. Dogs are unsanitary and many people are afraid of them. They may cause distractions and ultimately do more harm than good. Furthermore, when the dogs were at work with their owners, they would likely have no place to be kept and if they did it would likely be unsanitary. When their owner went to the restroom, to get food, or talk to a coworker, the dogs would be tied up, left alone, or taken with, all options of which do not sound very appealing.
...dog assisted intervention is yet unknown. Other differential effects of human interaction with dogs and their clinical study situations have not yet expanded the reach of potential research. There is a need for better-designed experiment settings and reliability equation need to be documented for determination of the expanse of patient benefit (Johnson et. al., 2002).
Secondly, some people struggle with disabilities or severe mental illnesses and need a service dog because adults may draw attention away or even not focus on the problem at hand.
Animal-assisted therapy is often confused with service dog; it is two completely different type of usage of animals, which usually are dogs. It is commonly misunderstood because animal-assisted therapy and service dog are working animals with individuals with disability although according to (Hart-Cohen, 2009) service dogs is when an individual with disability is in need of help in order to function in daily life such as answering the door, crossing the street and the list goes on. While animal-assisted therapy animals are trained to offer comfort companionship, and affection to those in need in different situations such as courtrooms, nursing homes, schools, hospitals, and other places (Hart-Cohen, 2009). The point of animal-assisted therapy is to be available in specific situations to offer comfort to individuals. In order to become an assisted animal, the animal must undergo training, to receive a certified to prove that the animal is qualified to be able to control his or her behavior and is able to work with an...
Dogs are friendly and protective animals that are obediant to thier owners. Dogs love attention and being pampered by thier owners. Dogs must be fed and taken outside to urinate or to poop. So, this why bringing an pet of any sort to work is most certainly a no for me.
Having a dog can be a great experience for people who enjoy their company. These animals are usually friendly and active; they are intelligent and can develop a strong relationship with their owners based on love and care. However, having dogs is a big responsibility for the person who owns them, because they are animals, so they cannot support themselves. Dogs need someone who can feed them, give them love, and someone who can help them exercise. Moreover, these animals need big spaces in order to run and develop their muscles, so the owner has to know that he needs to take a walk with the dog several times a day.
Since the commencement of warfare, humans have been using dogs to wage battle. Dogs have been employed in direct combat, for security purposes, for carrying equipment and for unit esprit de corps as the mascot. Today many feel that modern Military Working Dogs are more than equipment; they are Soldiers.
I believe that allowing dogs to be taken to the workplace by their owners could be a very good way to boost productivity. The owners would be less stressed because they wouldn't have to worry about their dogs at home. Also, they could want to stay later and get more work done; because, they don't have to go home to walk the dog.
Dogs are wonderful creatures. They are loyal, dependable companions if given the opportunity. In recent years I have come to the opinion that we could learn something from these animals. We should also take a look at the manner in which they are being treated. Abandonment, irresponsible breeding, and neglect are only some of the ways that humans are failing the canine species.
