What has happened is that a multitude of animals have been used for all sorts
of emotional troubles people have.
A dog guide for a blind person costs upward of fifty thousand dollars to
train before the blind person receives the dog guide at no cost to the blind
person.
Dog guides for the blind are official service dogs.
An emotional support snake or pot bellied pig, being important to the person
who needs them are a bastly different subject than an official dog guide for
the blind.

Hello,
The forwarded Report is in today's Bangor Daily News' Website.
A Woman from Falmouth, with a standard Poodle Service Dog accompanying her ,
as she is Blind, had taken the S/D to Portland for a Manicure - in January
2017. She does not state how she was transported to Portland.
She called for a Uber as transportation back home to Falmouth, but when the
Uber Driver saw the Service Dog - he refused to bring her and the dog back home
- " No Dogs. "
You can read the Report for yourself - Very Interesting that some people
here in Maine with physical disabilities are still encountering Discrimination
Years after the ADA became Law.
