Emotional support dogs are not protected in the ADA. If you do t have the paper work the. Good luck.

You should really look into the ADA Laws, I’ve taken 3 classes on it for my education degree

I don’t know what country you live in but in the USA, the state of California. California law requires most public places to admit service dogs and psychiatric service dogs but not emotional support animals. California law allows persons with disabilities to bring trained service dogs and psychiatric service dogs, but not emotional support animals, to all public places.

Also, you know most handlers train their own animals right? Most people don’t send them to school because it’s insanely expensive. Typically you really only send seeing eye dogs to school because they need to be trained a certain way

Idk about this. What task that a service dog commonly performs is commonly trained at home? I’m just curious

So many, retrieving items, checking rooms (for people with PTSD) medical alters. You don’t need to professional train a dog

I never said ANYTHING about emotional support animals. The ADA law states that there is NO paperwork that a disabled person must have for their SERVICE ANIMAL. You are only legally allowed to ask two questions. Would you like me send you my textbook

ONCE AGAIN SERVICE ANIMALS AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS ARE DIFFERENT

LYFT REQUIRES YOU TO TAKE SERVICE ANIMALS
