Nope I'm not but it's very obvious the asshats who abuse the sysyem.

So
Fucking
True

Image is from a couple weeks ago, small terrier type dog walking around Whole Foods with an yellow vest on vest almost looked like a service dog vest then....
The dog pissed on the floor

I don’t need to be trained to recognize service dogs to understand they should piss on the floor in a Whole Foods
I don’t need to be a trained psychologist to know it was some spoiled wealthy woman doing it because she feels rules don’t apply to her.

Disappointing, peacocks are awesome.

In fact, I'd rather have a plane-full of peacocks than people. They don't complain about service/comfort animals on the flight.

You say that now. Wait till all those birds begin shitting on you, shitting on your bags, shitting next to your seat. Then again, that might be as bad as some overweight 300+ lbs behemoth taking up half of your seat sitting next to you.

And i just got back from taking my daughter to DIA to catch a flight back to Japan to her Aircraft Carrier and we saw a guide dog. NOW that is a service animal. so fucking cool watching that dog guide her blind human companion, amazing.

That bird calmly chilling on the luggage cart is already better behaved than 95% of air travelers.

Quite fucking true, I used to run a wireless store in Boston. Some old, rich aloof woman used to insist on taking her "comfort" animal in. That dog was a terror, when he growled at a kid then shit on the floor it was an immediate "you leave now"
Which was of course followed with "I'll sue" guess what never happened?

True service animals are trained not to attack even when attacked. So these fake comfort/service animals cause issues with other passengers and with real service animals should they be attacked.

Did the owner clean up the dogs mess? FYI stores are not allowed to ask to proof of a service dog so their hands are tied.

This is giving me an idea for a new airlines. I'd call it Animal Farm Airlines where your livestock is welcome....for a handsome fee of course. The worlds first mobile petting zoo.

I don't do carry-ons, and you know what's great? Those goddamn peacocks don't either. Everyone gets to actually disembark the plane when it lands rather than wait for 50 people to unload their 100lb suitcases.

Sounds like some buses and 2nd class trains many of us have been on in certain regions of the world.

Minus the fees, of course.

GENERAL RULES
Q7. What questions can a covered entity's employees ask to determine if a dog is a service animal?


A. In situations where it is not obvious that the dog is a service animal, staff may ask only two specific questions: (1) is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? and (2) what work or task has the dog been trained to perform? Staff are not allowed to request any documentation for the dog, require that the dog demonstrate its task, or inquire about the nature of the person's disability.

I know, I've got a relative that used to raise them. I'd still prefer peacock cawing to valley girl or ebonics though, not to mention just loud people in general.
A plane full of peacocks squarking, shitting and crashing around the cabin in the crappy imitation of flight that they have would be really, really fucking annoying.
