AA has banned more alleged "service animals." I think it is great! It is time to stop muddying the image of guide dogs and TRUE service animals.

If you are interested in knowing about real service dogs and the industry standards, here's a good place to start.

Agreed, I think it is about time they did something about this. I have a friend who trains service dogs and it is incredible the work they put them through and the time spent with the dogs before they get placed.
