I went Disney World a lot and, while I forget the circumstances, I had to meet my mother there one time while on leave. Dog came with. I didn't take her into the park but MGM Studios actually has a dog kennel. They were nice and fed/walked her. She got to ride on the tram. :3: (but she's trained and sat on my lap)

A year later, I see a man carrying a dachshund in Magic Kingdom. It looked like a very non-descript vest was put on the dog. It was red with a white cross. That's it. No ID tags or anything. The owner also got a little weird when I heard a person ask to pet the dog and blurt out "they let dogs in here!?". The owner mumbled and tried to look around for a family member to bail him out of the lie.

Peacocks can definitely fly. I've witnessed it first hand. They just don't very often.
That woman with the peacock is also so full of poo poo that it's an "emotional support animal." she bought it for an art installation and now posts its life on social media. She also tries to avoid public transportation (in NYC lol) do it doesn't get scared. How is that an another supports you???

K2 Solutions supplied our service dogs. I've often wondered what it would be like to work for them. My first dog through them was trained to sniff out barium and antimony. Then my second was trained to find methane. Both were good dogs. Though, the first would always try to "swim" in his water dish. :3:

ESA is a term that just seems like not only "I am loving crazy" label, but it also screams "I think I am special and my hamster/cat/parakeet is special too and here's a made up accomplishment of said animal so they can go everywhere with me and make everyone around me marvel at their greatness".

My friend's parents are part of a group that volunteers to train service dogs. It guess there's a crazy high fail rate when it comes to actually qualifying as a service dog though.
I guess if they fail, they dog can go through graining again or a family somewhere can end up with a really smart and well trained pet.

I'm torn on this issue. On one hand, I'm inclined to say allow all service animals of course, but not emotional support animals since people are making a mockery of that program. On the other hand, as an airline, why not try allowing all animals if they can fit in a seat someone buys them? Maybe have a one strike system where the cabin crew can submit a report about a troublesome animal, then the passenger no longer may bring any animals on board future flights. That way you could roll with your chill dog or whatever, w/o having to gin up some bullshit emotional support papers. But if some dude were to bring his rooster aboard and it crowed full-blast non-stop from NY to LA he would be animal banned. There'd have to be some weight guidelines, and no loose timber rattlers or similar poo poo.

This except you have to pay $500 and if you lose your strike, the animal is immediately ejected from the flight. Install an airlock in the back to facilitate the ejections.

I have Seizure Alerting dogs. My old 'retiree' is 15. We occasionally take her out and about so she doesn't feel deprived. She loves having people see her and comment.

My current partner is a retired show champion. He too likes to be seen, but they are both Standard Poodles so that is to be expected. The ideal is for the dog to be 'invisible' but that rarely happens. Usually an eagle-eyed kid spots the dog, screams "DOGGY!" and everybody looks. My favorite was on a plane trip. My dog was in front of me the entire trip, never made a sound, nothing. As the plane emptied, this woman from the back started screaming that she was allergic to dogs, was going to go into aniphylactic shock and sue everyone. She'd just spent 5 hours on the plane with us, but *now* it was fatal to her.
