The IRS says:
You can include in medical expenses the costs of buying, training, and maintaining a guide dog or other service animal to assist a visually impaired or hearing disabled person or a person with other physical disabilities. In general, this includes any costs, such as food, grooming, and veterinary care, incurred in maintaining the health and vitality of the service animal so that it may perform its duties.
To deduct these expenses, you'll need to keep receipts showing the purchase of the goods and services claimed. Just keep the receipts in your tax records. You do not need to attach them to your tax return.
