Service Dog Behavior is a scientific construct that specifies the set of trainable, standardized behavioral phenotypes and task-specific responses exhibited by working canines trained to assist individuals with disabilities, differentiating it from general canine behavior through its focus on functional assistance, reliability under distraction, and compliance with accessibility standards in real-world environments.
