Important✈️ airport security info for Service Dogs

[@rebecca5327]

Alternatively, you can use a nylon slip leash with no metal ring. Due to the many distractions, other "service dogs", pets traveling in and out of carriers, and people who will try to touch or grab your dog, it is still best practice to be on leash at all times, especially if your dog is in training.

[@Whiskeytoller]

You can absolutely use a slip lead with no metal! It’s definitely best to find what works for you and your dog.

[@cocohazel_nut]

One time I saw a TSA asking this lady to remove the leash from her service dog, even tho it was a slip lead. He kept joking about if the dog was going to stand by the owner, almost to the point he was making her feel guilty and harassed. Felt bad for her. But the dog was well trained and she did a great job. Showed the tsa guy that he assumed wrong.

Just out of curiosity, would a dog's microchip not set the machine off?

[@zhella1652]

No, the metal detectors have a metal threshhold so you can have metal just not enough to set off the door. A microchip isnt enough

[@McAmberlee]

I have 11 piercings and i don't set off the machines 😅

[@FF-oh2pv]

You have to have a certain amount of metal to set it of. Otherwise, the zippers on your clothes, hooks on bras or even metal implants in your teeth could set it of

Dunno what the other responder is on about, because my husky, who is a trained deaf alert deaf guide dog, also runs into things. Her head is in the clouds. Training isn’t going to fix that. She’s literally too busy checking out the environment, which she needs to do, to pay attention sometimes. I have a traffic handle to gently remind her to look forwards sometimes xD

I had to do this with my service dog after I forgot her slip lead. But she was a trooper even though we got jostled around a lot. So proud!

[@emilygrech3655]

It's rare nowadays to see real service dogs.

[@2amazing101]

It also helps to make sure you have strong stays and recalls in crowded areas with lots of waiting, in case you are separated when going through the scanners. I also recommend practicing stand stays, where someone the dog doesn't know pats them gently across their body, just in case a security agent needs to pat the dog down at all if you keep the gear on

[@KB-we6pf]

Ok … thank you very much for saying ,” if you choose “ . So tired of people saying TSA MADE them which is total BS . Everybody with a service dog should know that TSA cannot make you take your dogs equipment off in the US .

[@galactic_space_frogs]

[@JessikahElise]

I just let the TSA search my SD instead of taking everything off. I put him in a sit stay and I go through then call him to me, he sets it off and they ask to search him, he likes the attention seeing as I normally don't let anyone touch him when he's working lol

[@KB-we6pf]

Same 😊 TSA is always happy to give chin scratches which is my dog’s love language . LOL

[@judyives1832]

Every airport is a bit different. It’s best to just wait and follow their instructions. I’ve found them very helpful and my dog is well trained so he can handle whichever way they want it done.

[@FreyasSpams]

Or you could get TSA approved service dog gear! I plan on getting a TSA approved slip lead!

[@overcomer7412]

And don’t take your eyes off of your belongings while they’re on the conveyor. Someone tried to steal my laptop once by removing the bin it was in to another neighbouring belt. Luckily my husband had already gone through the metal detector and I started yelling to him what had happened and he and the agents searched all the belts and found it before the thief could have picked it up on the other end and walked away with it. I never saw who did it but I got it back.

I would like to train my dog to be a service dog and to alert me when a pots episode is coming but i dont know where to start and hes also already 4 years old and living in a house with 3 other people (besides me) so training will be insanely difficult if i try. Seeing videos like this though helps me realize how helpful service dogs can be and how obedient they can be with the right training. Even if i cant train my dog now i hope to do so one day :)

the first time my girl ever went through tsa with me, she was in her perfect sit-stay, with no gear on, on the opposite side of the metal detector. when i called her to the other side she looked at me, paused, then ran off the other direction. 🤪 we had been practicing for a while before going with different archways that i could find but service dogs arent robots and yk i hate tsa too. still made me feel silly afterwards 😂

[@kimlloydhildreth1595]

As a blind person I would never take my dogs harness off nor give them to another unknown person. I would ask TSA for a private pat down of myself and the dog. Never surrender your dogs leash to anyone!

[@taylorobowa4129]

Call disability services for your airline before you go and youll get escorted through the airport and walked thrpugh what to do it helped me soooo much. I also kept all his vaccine records and an extra copy of his dot form. I have had airports do it one of 3 ways and you can always request one. 1st way: they have you walk through while having your dog in a stay and then call them through and they will wand check their gear and maybe pat it down (i warned them if i have to be alerted medically he is aloud to break a stay) 2. Walk through with them and then have them use the wand if it goes off then theyd pat doen places with metal 3. Just have them use the wand and stand off at the side. 😊 I prefer number 2 as i dont like to seperate from my dog, but whatever works for you. 😊 calling and getting somone who is trained in disability services and laws was the best thing i did and helped so much. ❤

[@miawilliams6183]

And like a couple other people said, you can always get a slip lead with no metal pirces and lead your SD through the metal detector naked. I would also talk to you that about something to calm your dog down if you're unsure of their reactions on the flight. It's something I wish I would have done with my second SD.

[@jcs3330]

In the UK, (other than official assistance dogs and those small enough - 8kg or under that fit into carriers) dogs a re not allowed in the cabin. So if your dog goes by air their are these so-called 'specialized' animal freight companies that charge a fortune (I paid £1400+) for not doing much at all. Collecting your dog from your home (with the paperwork that 'you' and your vet have already processed together) and taking them to the airport to be processed and checked with your dog. I would like to state that the airlines will not let you just turn-up at the airport with your dog and hand it over for the flight. Therefore these animal air transport companies are there to make a quick buck, with limited input on their part. Also, many years ago when I immigrated from the UK to Spain, with my beautiful late boy Max, a chocolate labradoodle, he had to travel in a specially built wooden crate with open cage ends etc, in cargo for the 3 hour flight and collecting him at the other end took ages. It is a well known fact that an airlines business model is built on minimum space and maximum seats. But what I do not understand is that if you are prepared to pay for an extra seat (so that your dog can sit/lay in the footwell of that seat), what's the issue!. That old poor excuse of "well it may 'upset' other passengers' has become a bit old and boring has an excuse. Because I have travelled on many planes with dogs 8kg etc in cabin and have never heard a single bark. And yet that can't be said when I have been on a flight and had to endure the piercing sounds of screaming children through the whole flight. The airlines really do need to change this ridiculous law. Because 'losing a seat fare' is no longer a valid excuse. Personally, (like many dog owners) I would have paid double for the seat so my late boy Max could have layed in the footwell. And that in itself would have made the airline double their 'seat fare!".

I don’t know about American service dogs…“make sure your service dog has a really good heel“ where I’m from service dogs who don’t have a really good heel aren’t service dogs…

[@breakingthechainsofpain1140]

Service dogs do not always have to be in a perfect heel position. While it is important for service dogs to have good leash manners, the specific requirements for their positioning may vary depending on their tasks and the needs of the person they are assisting. Service dogs are trained to perform specific tasks to assist individuals with disabilities, such as guiding individuals who are visually impaired or retrieving items for those with mobility impairments. As long as the dog is able to perform its tasks effectively and remains under control, the exact position of the dog may not be strictly enforced. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), there is no certification or documentation to label a dog as a service dog. The ADA defines a service animal as a dog that is individually trained to perform tasks or work for the benefit of a person with a disability. The law does not require service dogs to wear specific vests, have identification cards, or be registered or certified. However, businesses and establishments may ask two questions to determine if a dog qualifies as a service animal: 1) Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? 2) What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

[@samssams666]

what I don’t understand is why can’t they just let you go through the thing without having to take your dogs stuff off? let me explain, as a human they let us walk through those things with pockets, right? If a dog service vest has pockets, isn’t that the equivalent of your dogs pants? It’s like our pants, but for a dog, so they’re basically asking your dog to go naked through that thing because they’re afraid you’re going to smuggle some thing? Or are they afraid your dog is going to smuggle extra treats on board and cause the plane to crash? This doesn’t make any sense to me

[@RayFlemming7080]

The issue isn’t pockets, it’s that it sets off the detector. If your pants set off the metal detector TSA would pat you down. Similarly, you can choose to keep your dogs gear on, but the dog would be pat down. It’s to ensure a person hasn’t stored a weapon within the gear.

Service dogs are supposed to be able to do their job with or without the equipment. If the dog is presenting poor behavior such as paying more attention to the distractions around it and not properly heeling, then the dog needs more training. Could just be touch up training but it still needs training non the less. Doesn't matter the age.

[@breakingthechainsofpain1140]

And the dog was acting appropriately just saying dogs are not robots even the most well trained service dog has their off day might want to consider that before being judgemental.

[@lexthebored8122]

@@breakingthechainsofpain1140 It's not being judgemental stating what I stated. I didn't give any kind of example of what I meant so I don't blame you for immediately jumping to that conclusion but I'll go ahead and explain what I meant a little more. When I said paying more attention to the distractions around them, I didn't mean a quick greeting or any other small behaviors that a dog is going to present. As you said, dogs are not robots. What I meant was: any kind of hyper focus on something other than their person, excessive barking/growling when not taught to as an indicator, breaking heel, poor recall, pulling at the leash, biting, pawing at strangers, chewing, etc. A service dog, no matter how long it's been on duty (technically they are never off duty), should not show any of those inappropriate behaviors. Proper care of service dogs also sees that they have small breaks throughout the day so they have some 'down' time. I'm tired of people slapping a patch on a vest when they have a dog just so they can bring a dog with them anywhere and everywhere knowing that their dog isn't trained. It makes it very difficult for people with actual service dogs.
