There are a lot of different organizations that train service animals. Search Google for the type of service animal you need (epilepsy, Diabetes, hearing/vision/mobility impaired, PTSD, ...ect) or you can train one yourself.

Do the regulations that apply to service animals also apply to young service dogs in training?

Do Service animals in Training have the same access rights as fully trained Service Dogs?It depends on which state you are in. The Americans with Disabilities Act, defines Service Dog, and discusses what access rights a Service Dog has--but is silent about Service Dogs in Training. Therefore, you will have to find your State laws which would define Service Dogs.It is often hard to find those laws--because Service Dogs/in Training are often referred to in a term other than Service Dog/in Training. Also, state law portals can change. One site which attempts to keep up-to-date on Service Dog laws is here:http://www.psychdog.org/lifestyle_statelaws.htmlI would suggest that you read the laws for yourself--to see what the state law really says. There are sites (and booklets), which purport to cover each states law--but sometimes, those sites and booklets, leave out important information which is stated in the law.Also, know that a Service Dog is a Service Dog is a Service Dog--it does NOT matter what your disability is--according to the ADA--A Service Animal is any animal individually trained to do work OR perform tasks for a person with a disability... [emphasis mine--possibly paraphrased].
