Anyone with severe contact or respiratory anaphylaxis can benefit from having an Allergen Detection Service Dog.  Experience has shown that the dogs are most beneficial when the allergen is often found in unexpected places, preventing the person from being able to tell a safe environment from an unsafe one.  Allergen Detection Service Dogs are especially beneficial for:

•  Young children who explore the world with their hands and have difficulty understanding that touching things can be dangerous.
•  Teenagers who want to be more independent or more involved in group activities
•  Those who are in a school, church, workplace or other group setting frequently
•  Families who want to increase their involvement and interaction with their community
