No.Police dogs are working dogs but they are not service animals. Service animals are animals that perform tasks/work to help mitigate the disability of their handler.

Is a business owner allowed to ask for proof that animal is a service animal?

There are two questions a business owner may ask. 1. is that a service animal? and 2. what specific task does that service animal provide for your disabilities? If you think the animal is not a service animal, by means of growling, barking, urinating, and or pooping on the floor, or the handler not maintaining control of the animal, then you have two choices available to you. You may request the service animal team to leave the store and/or you may call the police to assist in the removal of the unruly dog/or mini horse as pursuant to ADA laws that solely permit these two animals to be service animals. The law does not require any certification and/or vests or markings asserting the dog or mini horse is a service animal. The only way to verify is the two questions permitted by law. The only person that can ask detailed questions regarding disability is the investigating police officer. If you try to ask more than the two questions this may result in legal issues.. if you have any questions I know of a facility Guardian Angels Medical Service Dogs (GAMSD) a 501(c)(3) non-profit that is working with local and Florida State legislators to pass a service animal bill to assist the disabled in here Florida. the Federal ADA laws are constant. Thanks.
