Service Animals

Do you allow pets inside? icon

No. We only allow service animals inside.

How is a service animal defined? icon

Under the ADA, a service animal is defined as a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability. The task(s) performed by the dog must be directly related to the person's disability. Public entities must allow miniature horses to accompany people with disabilities where “reasonable.” Four factors may be used to determine what is reasonable:

  1. The miniature horse is housebroken.
  2. The miniature horse is under the owner’s control.
  3. The facility can accommodate the miniature horse’s type, size, and weight.
  4. The miniature horse does not compromises legitimate, necessary safety requirements.

What questions may be asked about the service animal? icon

When it is not obvious what service a dog provides, a public entity may ask two questions:

  1. Is the service animal required because of a disability?
  2. What work or task has the service animal been trained to perform?

When might a service animal not be allowed entry? icon

A public entity is not required to permit a service animal if the animal would create a legitimate safety risk or would fundamentally alter the nature of a public entity’s programs, services, or activities.

Are emotional support, therapy, comfort, or companion animals considered service animals under the ADA? icon

No. These terms are used to describe animals that provide comfort just by being with a person. Because they have not been trained to perform a specific job or task, they do not qualify as service animals under the ADA.
