(ABC 6 News) — Governor Tim Walz put pen to paper on Thursday to help the brave four-legged friends wearing a badge.

The bill, signed into law on Thursday, gives service dogs in training the same protections and support as active service dogs.

Gov. Walz said the bill will ensure those dogs can live with their trainers while preparing for the job before finding their forever home.

It also makes service dogs in training exempt from HOA and apartment rules that don’t allow dogs, which previously, only active service dogs received.

The Favicon for the website, dogsandpurses(dot)com, features an all-black background with a minimalist line drawing of a puppy's head poking out of a stylish purse. The puppy's head is drawn with a cute and friendly expression, making it the focal point of the design. The purse, which the puppy is emerging from, is depicted with clean, elegant lines. The contrast between the black background and the white line drawing creates a striking and modern look for the Favicon.
