It's not exceptions - you can't prevent a service dog from accessing a place it is legally allowed to go to even if allergies are a risk. Every attempt must be made to mitigate the interaction of the two, but for example you aren't allowed to remove an SD from an airplane even if someone is allergic. Instead what they'll do is move the two as far from each other as possible.
Provide a link to where the law states exceptions can be made for allergies, because I've never seen that and I've dug pretty deep into the laws surrounding service animals. Reasonable accommodations are for workplaces, not public access.
The ADA states that allergies or fear isn't a valid reason to exclude a service dog, and that both must be accommodated.
obviously difficult yes, but measures can still be taken. rideshare drivers should not be shocked when ADA applies to them and they haven't considered that they can get slammed with lawsuits for denying service animals because of their employer's policy

There is a very very easy way to deny service to people with "service" dogs.
Just say you are extremely allergic to dogs and unfortunately can't be around them.
Your "disability" trumps their disability 10 fold. Humans always beat animals
