Dumb access denial excuses for your service dog - Page 6

I see more and more people having those chihuahuas in their bags strolling in the store and people wouldn't notice and its really amusing to me how more lax some places are becoming when it comes to those little guys due in the name of fashion.

Too bad we can't wear our big dogs.

on a serious note- isn't it even against the law to ask why you have a service dog in the first place?

Yes and no. The business may ask what TASKS the dog has been trained to do to mitigate your disability. Note that comfort and companionship are not tasks. The business may not ask for a demonstration, nor they can require proof of the training, ask what your disability is or ask for proof of that disability.
