Abstract

My STEP Signature Project was composed of three different components that all tied together. I was a puppy raising intern at 4 Paws for Ability in Xenia Ohio. I worked as an Intern for 4 Paws for Ability in Xenia, Ohio and become a full-time volunteer training for this organization. This project expanded upon my Health Sciences Major and Disabilities Studies minor that I am working towards at Ohio State. This experience taught me the process of training a service dog, allowed me to understand the impact that service dogs have for individuals with disabilities. Lastly, through observing at physical therapy clinics I could to see where service dogs could benefit the therapy process.
