Staying with the dogs theme, Here's a comparison chart for the three types of STE dogs. I just made up STE. Maybe it will catch on.
I know a gal that has a therapy dog and takes it to hospitals for patient support. I doubt if she's been to any hospitals recently.

There is an enterprising man in my city who takes his alpacas to the hospital, to the hospice, and sometimes to funerals.
It is a voluntary service he provides - and he is very, very welcome.
He (and Buttercup) were at the funeral of a friend of mine's mother. Buttercup had visited her just before she died and she had loved it. And we all welcomed her at the funeral service (through slightly misty eyes).
And the heads are all labradors.
My dog would be a great service dog and I am thankful I got this smart cookie first.
EC - Now there's an idea! And people just down the road from me have alpacas. (Maybe) (I haven't seen them out in a while) My wife barely puts up with our dog. I don't know how an alpaca would go over.
MPP - If we wind up getting another dog it will probably be a lab. Or a labradoodle. Neighbors had one of those and it had a lab temperament.
It's great to see the three terms differentiated.
Helpful chart -- people kind of conflate the various types together, which is confusing.
EPT - yes - This was the first I'd seen them broken out like this.
DSWS - Every commercial airplane should have this posted at the door.
