Something everyone should know!

An unattended service dog is a sign its owner needs help
You see, a dog in a harness without its owner nearby is unusual. If a service dog nudges you with its nose or barks at you with no owner in sight, it's a clue that the dog is seeking help. In this instance, follow the dog. It will lead you to its owner.
