Service Dog Friendly Cities

Often times children and individuals with autism who have service dogs can find it difficult to navigate their home towns with the proper support and resources they need.   Many people stare and judge and give unwelcoming glances toward their direction.  This causes friction and makes the individual with autism uncomfortable in their own surroundings and neighborhood. There are cities which are more dog friendly than your average city which means your child with autism and his or her dog are going to have an easier time.  
The cities which are best considered the most dog friendly according to Dog Channel website are:
  • Portland, Oregon
  • Colorado Springs, Colorado
  • Albuquerque, New Mexico
