Describe training with its limits still visible
List the task the dog already performs, its cue, and the situations where it is reliable. Label unfinished work as a training goal rather than a completed capability.

Apply for a Colorado psychiatric service dog letter assessment based on your disability-related needs and the work your dog performs. A Colorado-licensed clinician reviews the clinical question; task training, public behavior and destination requirements need their own evidence.
Colorado clinician review
Separate training evidence
Purpose-specific documentation
Name the document’s purpose
Clinical support, task performance and permission to enter a destination are separate questions.
Identify the responsible professionalStart the clinical request with function and learned assistance
- The person
- What activity is affected, and in which circumstances?
- The dog
- Which established action addresses that particular difficulty?
- The purpose
- Where will the requested document be used?
Assign the clinical and training questions to the right professional
The clinical review
The reviewing professional considers the person’s clinical circumstances. Ask what the service covers and understand that it is not a dog-training or public-access certification program.
Use the Colorado DORA license lookup to check the professional’s identity, license type and current record. A dog-training credential and a Colorado mental-health license serve different purposes.
The behavior review
A clinician’s letter does not establish that the dog is controlled, housebroken, or suitable for public settings. Obtain appropriate training input for those questions.
Keep intake and consent connected to the existing case
Provide accurate information and read the agreement before signing. Use the account connected to any existing case so the record remains coherent.
- A new request
- Begin with the screening and intake questions.
- An existing record
- Return through the account already associated with it.
Check whether this is the document the setting needs
Housing, employment, and airline situations can have different processes. Ask what documentation is relevant to the actual setting before paying for an unnecessary product.

Colorado Service Animals does not offer an ESA registry. A professional evaluation determines whether documentation is appropriate; optional cards and certificates do not establish access rights.
Colorado PSD documentation assessment
Apply for a letter based on your clinical circumstances
Make the reason for requesting documentation clear from the first screening answer. The professional's findings determine whether a letter is appropriate.
Free ScreeningSubmit the functional account
Explain the difficulty, the dog's actual task and where you intend to use the document.
Participate in Colorado clinical review
A licensed Colorado clinician considers the request, including questions that cannot be answered by the initial form.
Receive email delivery if approved
Check the issued letter for accurate personal and animal details before using it for its stated purpose.
Review an issued record before relying on its details
Read
Report errors through the issuing service and retain the original file. Do not add tasks or conclusions the professional did not approve.
Maintain
A document is not the end of the work. Maintain the trained response, the dog’s health, and a backup arrangement for times the dog cannot assist.
Recheck
Revisit the relevant setting's process when circumstances change, rather than assuming one record will answer every future request.
PSD evaluation questions from application to follow-up
These questions connect the application to its intended use and the follow-up that may still be needed.
The application and its purpose
What if the task is still being learned?
Identify the work as unfinished and describe what has actually been achieved. Do not turn a training goal into a completed capability in an intake answer.
Will the evaluator train my dog?
The documentation review concerns the clinical request. Ask a suitable trainer about learning, reliability and behavior in the situations where the dog may need to work.
Should I open another account for a PSD request?
If you already have a case, begin from its associated account or ask support how to proceed. Keeping the record connected helps avoid unnecessary duplicate information.
Professional identity and continued care
May I add a new task to a signed document myself?
Ask the issuing service about corrections or a changed request. Leave signed findings intact until the responsible professional has reviewed and issued any appropriate change.
Where can I check the Colorado professional's credential?
Use Colorado's official professional-license lookup with the clinician's name and credential details. Ask the service to clarify a mismatch before relying on the record.
Is a PSD letter a replacement for an existing treatment plan?
The requested document addresses a particular assessment question. Discuss continuing treatment with your treating professional; do not change medication or other care to obtain documentation.
Continue with the part that remains unresolved
- Clarify the psychiatric service-dog role
- Plan the training discussion
- Read the separate airline procedure
If the issue is a disputed housing accommodation, ask CCRD or a housing adviser about the record and deadlines. CCRD's housing notice states a one-year filing window after the alleged discriminatory act.

Verify current destination and local authority rules because requirements can change. Clinical screening does not guarantee a letter or establish a dog’s training.
