Dear Joe,Can you tell me--and tell me how you know some of us don't respect our fellow man?
You and I have never met; you know little about me, but I'm a damn good dog handler expects my dogs to adhere to a high code of behavior, and I get it, too, and she was just in the home of friends for the past couple of weeks and she caused no damage whatsoever.
Robert's right: If I am unfairly assessed penalties, I'm going to litigate that case/ Dogs do not, as some believe, shed as much as people think, etc.

It's apparent you have never had a guide dog and from the sound of it you don't like dogs but I would think you have the ability to smell piss and shit and hopefully you haven't lost all the feelings in your hands. Guide dog users should always be aware of what there dogs are doing and know there bad habits. With an attitude like yours I certainly see why the Florida Legislature has the attitudes they have about blind people.Robert----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Plummer" <joeplummer@xxxxxxx>To: <tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, May 02, 2010 12:18 AM Subject: [tabi] Re: Question & answer about motel and service dogsLet me ask you how you know how much hair was left behind, what did yourmale dog pee on , what he or she or what ever the animal kind or type of or whatever chewed on. You don't because you can't see. I don't think I takinga right away you don't have this to start with. Yes the right to have theanimal and to have it with you . But not to put up a deposit no that is notaright. Use common since people. This would be like taking your dog oranimal in a restaurant and going up to the buffet with him. I think this is not respecting other people and not having a animal with all that hair and his nose wondering about. Common since is not to do this. Ask the waitressto help you get your plate and take it back to the table. You all need tohave respect for others. How are you going to get respect if you don't give it. I am a service dog owner also but I respect my fellow man and don't want to be treated special. I just want to be treated as normal as possible witchis hard to do given my handicap. This is just my thoughts and you are welcome for me doing this. Smile! LOL!

But different places will havedifferent policies. I dis agree I don't think he has a case. They did notrefuse him to let his dog stay They just charge a service charge for the dog not because he was taking up a space but for more than likely the extra cleanup and inconvenient they had. This is my thoughts. Oh by the way I have a service dog also. I myself would not think anything about the extra money if they told me it will cost extra and the amount. Again my thoughts.

They can'tcharge you for your service animal, unless something happens. If they aredoing this, you may have a case to make an issue. To me that is extortion, because this is tarting to happen in even cabs. In the miami aria, and even in some eating astablishments. I'm glad to be your humble and obedient servant, Zechen Elder Daniel Ben Moshe, Benai Yahshuah Synagogue Of Broward County, www.theblindcansee.org Choose ye this day whom you will serve. If Yahweh be Elohim, then servehim, with all of your hart. However, if bail be your master. Then servehim. As for me, and my house. We choose, to serve Yahweh! The late Bishop Joe Patterson told a story long ago, when i was a small child. About Elijah, and the 450 false prophets of bail. He said that Elijah, stood, and told the false prophets to go on ahead, because they had a much larger program. He said that they had 450 participants, and he only had one. Elijah, also reminded them, that they had to drag their god up the mountain side on an ox cart. the man of yahweh, also said, that his Elohimwould be there when he arrived. He said mockingly,you go on ahead. Heck,Iwill even let you call your god first. I'M going to take a nap, and when you guys finish your foolishness, wake me up. Go ahead now, take your bestshot.

I have been charged extra for my dog as we travel at motels by about 15 dollars a roomfor the dog. There is no problem with getting her in the room - but my friend said that they can only charge if the dog does something in the room then that is fine. Their policy for pets staying in the room is $15 a night extra. This was new to me and I told her I could not recall reading anything about this under title II. Could you clarify this for me? Thanks ..... Answer: Hotels are covered by title III, not title II. (Places of public accommodation - title III vs. programs and services of state or local governments (title II). The issue you raise concerns an unlawful surcharge. See http://www.ada.gov/qasrvc.htm , question 7: 7. Q: Can I charge a maintenance or cleaning fee for customers who bring service animals into my business? A: No. Neither a deposit nor a surcharge may be imposed on an individualwith a disability as a condition to allowing a service animal to accompany the individual with a disability, even if deposits are routinely requiredfor pets. However, a public accommodation may charge its customers with disabilities if a service animal causes damage so long as it is the regularpractice of the entity to charge non-disabled customers for the same types of damages. For example, a hotel can charge a guest with a disability for the cost of repairing or cleaning furniture damaged by a service animal ifit is the hotel's policy to charge when non-disabled guests cause such damage.
