You're seeing this video ad-free and a day early. Thank you for being a Patreon member!

Imagine this: You’re being loaded onto a stretcher, your service dog hops on, stationing himself over your lower body, the stretcher jolts up and forward, and the ambulance doors close behind you. Sounds intense, right?

But what if I told you this was all part of a carefully planned training session? In this video, I take you behind the scenes of a unique and invaluable experience—introducing my service dog in training, John Denver, to an ambulance for the very first time.

From navigating the stretcher ride to handling the chaos of sirens and medical personnel, I’ll break down what went well, what needs work, and why this kind of preparation is crucial. Whether you're a service dog handler, trainer, or just love seeing dogs in action, you won’t want to miss this fascinating glimpse into real-world service dog training!

This is such a great idea. I recently took my service dog to the fire department, we meet the firemen and they left on a call while we were there. The Ambulance part would be so helpful though. I have often wondered about this. Thank you for this info!

What a cool experience, Laura! I’m a medical student in Brazil and from the healthcare perspective, this is super super cool. Not only do the staff learn what to do or not do with the dog, but having a well-behaved and well-trained SD in the midst of chaos is super valuable for the staff too… no one wants to deal with more than they have to in a chaotic situation. A stressed dog would definetly take our attention away from the patient and the task at hand, so preventing this is always a good idea!!!

P.S. The other day I saw in the news that a chaotic HUMAN (obviously a Karen-type situation) went into the ER, more specifically a trauma bay (a designated room used only for patients with life-threatening injuries/conditions) and made a big scene, distracting personnel from life-saving CPR. The patient di3d on the table because of these distractions while Karen continued to cause a scene. Conclusion: these type of experiences are very very valuable to everyone involved. Also, maybe Karens should undergo this type of training too. 🙄
