Is the following sentence correctly punctuated, or is it a fused sentence or comma splice?

Service dogs are trained to help people buying a vest so you can take your dog into the grocery store is selfish and wrong.

This would be a fused (run-on) sentence. It should be “Service dogs are trained to help people, buying a vest so you can take your dog into the grocery store is selfish and wrong.”
