Disability friendly work?

I'm 16 and trying to find a job in Chicago area anyways I'm disabled and have a service dog which makes things a lot harder. Had to quit my job because they didn't believe I had a disability (reality of being young and having an invisible disability) amc and Marcus theaters by me are very acomidating but there's no positions other than bar tenders lol. I feel like a job at jewelosco would be to much for my health standing to much wise. I'm just very worried I won't be able to find a job due to my disabilities. I'm a hard worker and end up pushing myself to much woops. Here's a pic of the pup.
