The dog behind the card
A working partner with a very specific opinion about head scratches.
Leia is intelligent, quick to learn, and deeply devoted to her handler. She is training for work that supports her person while approaching every day with warmth, focus, and unmistakable personality.
Off duty, she loves children, Greenies, her Buc-ee's soft log, and curling up in her handler's lap. When she wants affection, she gently moves a nearby hand onto her head until the petting begins.

Leia's field notes
Dispatches from a very good dog.
Imaginative writing in Leia's voice—playful stories, not factual training records.
Field note 01
The hand was in the wrong place
“I noticed a perfectly good hand resting nearby instead of on my head. I corrected the situation. Training is about helping everyone succeed.”
Field note 02
A Greenies-based economy
“Today’s work was productive. I remain open to discussing performance bonuses, preferably the green kind.”
Field note 03
Side-eye is communication
“Some dogs bark. I prefer nuance. One look can say, “I understand the assignment, but have you considered a nap?””

Service-animal FAQ
A few clear answers.
This summary focuses on federal ADA rules for state and local government services and public-facing businesses. Other laws and settings can differ.
Official ADA service-animal guidanceWhat may staff ask?
Only two questions are allowed when the dog's role is not obvious. Staff may ask whether the dog is required because of a disability and what work or task the dog has been trained to perform. They may not ask about the person's disability or request a task demonstration.
Read the official sourceIs certification, registration, or ID required?
No. Federal ADA rules do not require a service dog to be certified, registered, or carry an identification card. Documents sold online do not create rights under the ADA.
Read the official sourceIs a vest required?
No. Federal ADA rules do not require a vest, ID tag, or specific harness. A vest by itself does not establish service-animal status.
Read the official sourceDo federal ADA rules cover dogs still in training?
Not yet. The dog must already be trained before federal ADA public-access rules apply. State or local laws may provide different coverage for service animals in training.
Read the official sourceMay someone pet Leia?
Please ask her handler first. Petting, calling, feeding, or otherwise distracting a working dog can interrupt important training or task work.
This site is educational and is not legal advice. A profile, QR code, card, registration, certificate, vest, or training organization does not create legal service-animal status.
