I don’t remember where, but I saw something recently online about an emotional support squirrel. Not sure if it another comic or somewhere more potentially news like.
Usually not one for more government regulation, but we definitly need regulation and penalties on support animals and service animals. Idiot people buying vests and certificates on line, just so they can bring FooFoo onto planes and into restaurants.
The ADA only recognizes dogs and miniature horses as a service animal. Thing is, you apparently cannot ask the owner for the animal’s certification. And you can buy a vest that says service animal quite easily.
If the animal does not behave, is easily distracted or behaves aggressively, then it is not a trained support animal. That is not something you want to find out when you’ve reached cruising altitude.

I think that the whole emotional support animal system has gotten squirrely.

I have an emotional support spouse who also tends to hoard all the peanuts.

The key problem here is the transformation of a want into a need. Feeling that you’re owed is nuts.
