I have an ESA animal who I owe my life to, but I leave him home in situations where I know he is not wanted. There are other ways to deal with problems. I think changing the law is a bit extreme though. My ESA is a Cat and despite what people say or think he is well behaved, walks on a leash, wears a t-shirt and is regularly bathed to cut down on allergies. It is already nearly impossible to find housing in UT because of those who abuse this law, but making it harder on those who have legitimate problems hardly seems fair. Make ES animals get a license of some sort and that alone would cut down on it because most people are too lazy to jump through hoops. I agree that many people abuse the ESA laws.

They are billed as house trained which boggles the mind. Do they whinny or kick the door? I have seen articles about "seeing eye horses" and miniature horses are used.

I am legally blind with epilepsy. SHe has served me for over 8 years. We go anywhere a seeing eye dog does. I believe the laws on service animals should not be changed. Trixie is not a miniature pony but rather 4 feet tall. I am a dwarf. Thank you. I do bring trixie my service pony inside to shop or run errands with. I am legally blind with epilepsy.

When it came to the seeing-eye horse, I had to read to read that twice. I'd never heard of that before. Maybe we finally have a clue to the meaning of Lewis Black's famously overheard cryptic comment: "If it weren't for my horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college." Also, I agree with Ken. "Emotional Support Ferret" would be an awesome name for a band. Yeah, there's really nothing to argue here and you're absolutely right.

Also, I object to the narrow-minded and exclusionary insistence on limiting emotional support sources to animals. I may derive emotional support from a bottle of tequila. Or a reefer the size of a Yule log. Or my Glock with the pre-ban clip. Who are you to deny me the right to take my emotional support wherever I want?
