Quoted from The_Pump_House:Unfortunately people who do not need a service animal but want to bring their pet in to a venue make up the overwhelming majority of persons trying to bring in service animals.
This arrogance and selfishness unfairly brings a level of skepticism from venue operators and makes life unnecessarily more difficult for those in need of a service animal in a public space.
Yes, the jackasses who had to bring a peacock on a flight or take their miniature horse to the baseball game ruined the chances of those with legit service DOGS to be welcome without scrutiny.
Lots of people on this planet suck.
