Hmmm...I always thought it was limited to dogs trained provided a service for someone with a disability. I never realized that 'anxiety' was classified as a disability.... I guess maybe if the Dept of Justice recognizes the cases as a disability on a case by case basis...

Businesses ARE allowed (legally) to ask what specific tasks the animal is trained to perform, BTW.
