How to Pick Service Dog Tasks

How do you pick what tasks to train your service dog (SD)? "Task Shopping" is where you look at a list of tasks other handlers use for them self and you train your dog the task even if its not super useful to you. The service dog community labels this as "Task Shopping" and is generally frowned upon. I under stand as a new handler navigating the world of service dogs is hard. I hope this video explain a better way to go about find the BEST tasks for you and your SD with out someone calling you out for "task shopping".

Hello!!! Nice to meet you! I’m new in the service dog community and all of that, I was wondering how can you teach a dog to remind you the meds? 😮
