Service Animals

 

Service Animals
 
  •  Some people who are deaf, blind, or visually impaired, or who have traumatic brain injury, seizure disorder, or a range of other disabilities may use a service animal to assist them with daily living.
     
  •  While you may inquire whether an animal is a service animal, the person may not have information identifying it as such. This means that in general, you will need to modify a “no animals” policy to allow the person to enter with her service animal.
     

  •  Service animals are generally highly trained and well behaved. You may ask the person to remove the animal if she does not have the animal under her control.
