Can you ask for registration paperwork for service animals when checking into a hotel?

Service animals are permitted to accompany their disabled owners any place where the general public are permitted to go, including hotels and motels. Lodging establishments are not permitted to charge extra for the service animal or to require a deposit. However, the owner of the service animal would still be responsible for any damages done to the facilities. A representative of the hotel or motel is permitted to inquire as to what the dog is trained to do to mitigate the owner's disability. If the dog is not trained to perform specific tasks, then it is not a service dog and they are not required to permit it.


What does the ADA say about privately owned homes being rented that are not animal friendly?

Generally if the landlord owns more than four units for rental (houses, apartments, any type of dwelling) then he is subject to ADA laws and must abide by them. Any landlord has the right to make his rental units non-animal friendly and ADA has nothing to do with this, EXCEPT service animals. If a landlord doesn't permit any kind of animals then he must make an exception his rules in order to permit service animals. The only question the landlord may ask about the service animal is what it does to assist the disabled. He may not ask about the disability itself. And the landlord may not charge pet fees or other pet deposits and charges for service animals EXCEPT DAMAGES done by a service animal. If the service animal is disruptive (barks excessively, is agressive, etc.) the landlord may have the right to exclude it.

What are the type of Ada animals?

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) defines a service animal as any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal individually trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability. If they meet this definition, animals are considered service animals under the ADA regardless of whether they have been licensed or certified by a state or local government.An ADA animal is any trained animal that provides service to a disabled person with a covered disability. Most common are dogs, but there are also cats, pigs, horses, and monkeys. The animal is not a pet, and state laws prohibit people from passing pets off as service animals. Unfortunately, there are plenty of people who take advantage of laws protecting disabled people and try to pass off their pet as a service animal helping under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Because there is no single accepted registration or certification program, some people improperly believe dogs achieving status under the American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Program or under a therapy pet program are allowed in places only allowing service animals.


As a restaurant owner how do you know the dog is a service dog or just a pet?

The first clue is the animal's demeanor and behavior. A service animal should be very well behaved and obedient. A dog who wanders around at the end of the leash aimlessly probably isn't a service animal. If you still aren't certain, you can ask the animal's owner if it is a service dog. Businesses are permitted to ask whether an animal is a service animal, and what tasks the animal is trained to perform that the human handler cannot do for themselves. The business is not, however, permitted to ask for information about the specific nature of the person's disability or other invasive questions. If an animal is not trained to perform tasks to mitigate the handler's disability, then it isn't a service animal under the ADA. Guide dogs usually wear a special leather harness that helps them to guide their owner. In addition to the harness, the owner will also use a leash for controlling and directing the dog. Most other types of service animal wear some sort of marking such as a vest or cape, or special gear, like a harness. However, not all service dogs will wear special markings. Under the ADA, they aren't required to be marked. Unfortunately, the presence or absence of a cape or gear alone doesn't make it clear whether or not an animal is really a service animal. Unfortunately there are unscrupulous people who buy gear over the Internet to try to pass their pets off as service animals. Sadly, this is also true with certification. Anyone can forge their own certification or purchase fake certification over the Internet for their pets. Many states have begun taking steps to prosecute those who falsely claim their pets as service animals with stiff fines and jail time.

Can you ask someone if their dog is a service animal?

A business may ask someone entering with a dog 2 questions. 1. Is this a service dog? If they say no, then out they go! If they say yes, then question 2 is: How is this dog trained to assist you? Answers such as "I have a letter for him", "You can't ask that" "He protects me" or "She comforts me are unacceptable. You may not ask to see any sort of paperwork, ask what the person's disability is, ask them to demonstrate their dog's tasks. These are the laws for fully-trained service dogs. State laws regarding service dogs in training vary by state and are not covered by the ADA. (*EDIT BY MEMBER RW*) From the 2011 ADA service animal revision, word for word When it is not obvious what service an animal provides, only limited inquiries are allowed. Staff may ask two 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 cannot ask about the person's disability, require medical documentation, require a special identification card or training documentation for the dog, or ask that the dog demonstrate its ability to perform the work or task.


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.
