Thanks for helping to take away our rights as service animal users, Joe; maybe you can afford to pay for supercilious charges; send me your address, so I can send the bill to you while I'm filing a lawsuit abridging my rights to stay in a public accommodation with my service animal and not be charged for "extra cleaning" which should not need to be done unless the dog has had an accident.

Well, that might be the policy of that place. 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 dognot because he was taking up a space but for more than likely the extracleanup 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 moneyif 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 evenin 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 serve him, with all of your hart. However, if bail be your master. Then serve him. 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 thatElijah, 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 Elohim would 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 best shot.

I have been charged extra for my dog as we travel at motels by about 15 dollars a room for the dog. There is no problem with getting her in the room - but myfriend 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 nightextra. 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 individual with a disability as a condition to allowing a service animal to accompany the individual with a disability, even if deposits are routinely required for pets. However, a public accommodation may charge its customers withdisabilities 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 if it is the hotel's policy to charge when non-disabled guests cause such damage.
