I don't mind your post at all.
It was very difficult to find proper authentic reading material on how to get your dog registered as an ESA.
My doctor knows nothing about animal laws and simply wrote a truthful letter stating my mental illnesses and that having my dog with me helps my mental illnesses. After that, I leave it up to the discretion of the businesses to whether they want to let my dog in, or not.
I do not feel morally wrong for doing this.
I live in a city where girls carry their small dogs in their purse all of the time without having any physical or mental disabilities, such as I have.
Many may not agree with their actions, but personally I think we all have MUCH bigger problems to worry about.
