About Florida Working Dog Guide

Florida Working Dog Guide is an independent informational publication. Our purpose is to make practical service-dog and working-dog information easier to understand, especially where Florida weather, storm planning, public access, and travel create extra questions.

What this site is

We publish educational articles for handlers, families, pet owners, businesses, and readers who want a clearer understanding of working-dog topics. We prioritize official and primary sources when an article discusses law, government rules, disaster planning, or veterinary first aid.

What this site is not

This website is not a service-dog training school, veterinary clinic, law firm, certification registry, placement program, or government agency. It is also not affiliated with, operated by, or a continuation of the former Florida Dog Guides FTD organization.

Why the distinction matters

Some topics on this domain involve disability access and animal health. We do not invent professional credentials or imply that general articles can replace individualized advice. When a decision is medical, legal, or specific to a disability, the relevant qualified professional or official agency should guide that decision.
