- Canine and Abled
Canine and Abled is a service dog education program dedicated to promoting awareness and acceptance of service dog teams everywhere.
"Being partnered with a service dog has opened my eyes to a gross misunderstanding throughout the general public regarding service dogs, the rights and priveleges a SD team is entitled to, and the unique benefits these canine angels bestow upon their disabled partners".
"My goal with Canine and Abled is to evoke tolerance of the disabled; something that is sorely lacking in today's society. I know in my heart that people would not say rude things or deny access to disabled persons who rely upon service dogs if only they had insight of what these dogs do for us, and what life is like for a partnered team".
"Canine and Abled has been launched in schools, businesses, civic associations and the like and has received many accolades from audiences everywhere. It has also gained much attention in the media of late, and has been a great opportunity to promote awareness".
"It's so very important for me to spread my message far and wide! I can't begin to tell you how an access challenge affects a person who relies so completely upon their service dog. Education means open doors and open doors mean freedom; something our service dogs have so generously and selflessly given back to us".
"Kimberly Carnevale, Dewey (service dog), and Dawson (service dog in training)"--
"Together, we are Canine and Abled".
