Some dogs help at the slopes of mountains, others are aiding the disabled. Either way, these are really important jobs for our canine mates. There are many jobs that include dogs. For example, blind people use dogs as guides so they don't walk into traffic, bump into people in public, or make a mess of the house. Dogs also help with doors (opening and closing). People who are deaf need dogs for locating objects on command, retrieving dropped items, and alerting to the sound of a doorbell or fire alarm. But service dogs can be in other places, too, like the country. One farmer named Troy Balderson, who is in a wheelchair, said that his dog, Duke, keeps his cattle from "running him over", goes everywhere with him, and is a great companion.
