Fake Service Dogs Cause A Problem For Real Ones
Lots of dog owners would love to take their dogs everywhere and while many people reap the amazing benefits of a service animal every day, there are those who don’t need these 4 four footed assistants. Yet I have seen dogs out in public whose owners claim they are service dogs acting in ways that service dogs never should – barking, growling and jumping. I had my doubts about the validity of their claims. Phyllis DeGioia at Pet Connection has written a blog on this issue.
