Scruffy has no issue with vets being afforded more respect and, in a few instances, more rights, but why should they be permitted to take a service dog anywhere just because they are a vet.


Because for some vets suffering from severe PTSD....the service dogs are calming for them. Many of them have seen shite I hope I never see with my eyes in my lifetime. I'm ok if instead of ignoring the warning signs of PTSD...they get help and get a dog that keeps them calm in ordinary day to day activities.

The original post was simply "vets". Scruffy has no issue if it is for legitimate PTSD. That is an actual medical condition.
