🦮 Most people don't understand the difference between service animals, support animals, and therapy animals. This is bad because...

🚨 Confusion can lead to legal issues, harm to animals, and risks to public safety.🐾

Dogs play powerful roles in our lives—offering comfort, support, and even life-saving assistance. But not all working dogs are the same, and mislabeling them can have serious consequences.

Here's a quick breakdown:

🐕‍🦺 Service Dogs: Trained to perform specific tasks for people with disabilities. Protected under the ADA. Full public access rights.

🐶 Therapy Animals: Provide comfort in places like hospitals and schools. No public access rights. Must be invited.

🐕 Emotional Support Animals (ESAs): Offer companionship for mental health. No training required. Protected only under housing laws.

🏥 Facility Dogs: Work with professionals in settings like courts or clinics. Trained like service dogs but don’t have the same legal access.

Misrepresenting a pet as a service animal is illegal in 34 states and can lead to fines or jail time. It also undermines the rights of people who truly rely on service dogs.

Let’s protect the integrity of these roles—for the people who need them and the animals who serve them.
