It is my understanding that the TSA has the power to demand of you a statement from a licensed practitioner qualifying the dog as a medically necessary assistance animal.

From what I read, that's pretty much the only place wherein someone is allowed to ask you about. Pretty much everyone else is prohibited from asking because of the ADA.

I could be wrong and therefore welcome the correction.

You are wrong. ADA does not allow a service animal to be questioned.

To answer the OP, per TSA guidelines the dog must lay at the feet of the person it is servicing. When I fly I call the airline and buy a second seat for my Pyrenez. That way there is enough room for her to lay down.
