AIR TRAVEL

Seizure-Alert dogs receive extensive training and are exposed to situations that provide the dog and their partner with the necessary experience to ensure that the dogs do not impose upon the comfort or safety of fellow passengers.

People with epilepsy are regular passengers, and have the same need to explore the world and travel as anyone else.

Airlines are usually unaware that certain of their passengers may suffer from epilepsy, especially if the person is on medication.Thanks to dedicated training programmes, it is becoming more common for epileptic passengers to travel with their service dogs at their side.

Seizure alert dogs are no different to guide dogs for the blind. Both help their human companions to get out into the world. Both are highly trained and totally attuned to their human companion.
