Demystify: 

We put the dog in an office near the lab and put a baby gate in the office doorway.  The person with the service dog felt that the dog was close enough to hear her if she had difficulty, and this worked for 4 semesters.  If students need assistance manipulating items due to dexterity or vision issues, we hire lab assistants to help the student out during lab.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Service Dogs in Teaching Labs

Greetings all,

 

Has anybody had students in labs with service dogs?

 

If so, have they made any special accommodations or instructions?

 

Off the top of our heads we have come up with:

 

=B7         Position the dog behind you or under the bench rather that at the side if possible.

=B7         If leashes are necessary or required, use a joggers leash for hands free capability.

 

Thanks

 

Chris
