Answer 1

Answer:

Ask the patient if it is a service​ dog, and what it is trained to do

Explanation:

A service dog is a dog that has been trained to assist a disabled person. These dogs are trained to do works and tasks for people with disabilities with the aim to help them. Asking the question on whether the dog is a service dog would help to determine if it could be of help and therefore be brought along on this basis.
