Why do people try to pass their pets off as service dogs?
Do they honestly think that no one can tell the difference between a highly trained service dog and an untrained, badly behaved, unhousebroken dog?
Do they not realize that by taking their poorly trained dog in public, they make access harder for real service dog teams, because business owners start to be afraid that real service dogs will poop and pee in their stores or bite their customers?
Do they not realize that by taking their anxious, fearful, or aggressive dogs in public, they stress the dogs and endanger others, and that they are responsible for any damage their dogs do?
Do they not realize that they are violating Federal law, and, often, state law by trying to pass these dogs off as service dogs?
I can't imagine taking a dog that wasn't trained and proofed for public access out into stores and other public places. It seems to me that this would just make the outing more stressful from having to try to control the dog. I really am curious as to why people would do this. Any ideas?
7 AnswersDogs1 decade agoWhy aren't more people supporting Bill Richardson For President?
He has more executive branch experience and a better track record on accomplishing change than any other candidate. He has actual foreign policy experience, and has been a successful negotiator. He supports real, meaningful change in education, health care, immigration, and environmental and energy policy. He would end the war in Iraq without leaving an indefinite occupation force. He even has a sense of humor, for crying out loud.These are the things that people in this country say they want, yet they don't throw their support behind him. Why?
