Secondly. Please, be advised ADA law does not require certification for assistance dogs. I tell you you dont need it. This morning, I took my 5 months old American Pitbull Terrier to Costco and they were angry with me for bringing my dog in and I told them that I am training my dog to become service/assistance dog. They were silenced and didn't say a word. They knew of ADA violation after their training.

Good on Costco!

Are both of your dogs marked?

Meaning that they have leash or 'jacket that says, "hearing dog" ?
