I'm gonna do it! I can't find anywhere in any state where service dogs have to be registered. And most states don't require a doctor's letter but I will get one just in case. I even found little pink service dog patches on ebay for crying out loud. LOL
I didn't share this on this thread but I did tell a member in a pm that I am not on insulin shots yet but the doctor says it will be soon because we are starting to have trouble keeping things in balance. There are a couple of more medications to try but it doesn't look good. In fact he says that it is unavoidable. I cried when he told me that because I have been so good about diet and monitoring and all. BUT knowing that little Ms Adie may help protect me makes it so much easier to accept!
Thanks again y'all. You are the best! |
Hi Lou,
I did get a letter for my service dog from a Doctor. however, that was to have her in the apt. i live at, because of the No pet policy. You are right that you do not have to take classess in order to have a service dog legally. I like to have a vest or something like that to "show" people that she is one , when you have her with you out in public.
A therapy dog is different then a serice dog, they are not the same thing. Therapy dogs work with the public and do need training ....
