Process   The animal should be on a leash when not providing a needed service to handler. The animal should respond to voice commands at all times, and the handler should be in full control of the animal. To the extent possible, the animal should be as unobtrusive to other students and the learning environment as possible. Consequences for Behavior – When a service animal is determined out of control as reported by students, staff, or administration, the infraction will be treated on an individual basis. If the animal poses a threat to the safety of other students, Christ Hospital Safety and Security will be part of the collaboration team to determine the outcome of the behavior. Consequences may include but not be limited to muzzling a barking animal, refresher training for both the animal and the owner, or exclusion from college facilities. If the service animal is excluded from the college, this does not apply to the owner who is welcome to continue at the college without the service animal.
