Unless you’re a doctor and you’ve examined the person and their medical history, you really can’t assess whether or not a person needs a service animal. A person can look fit and young yet struggle with reactions that cause loss of consciousness (vasal vagal reactions, epilepsy, diabetes, etc.), impaired motor function (early arthritis), or panic attacks (such as a crime victim experiencing PTSD). Judge less
Scruffy is a doctor.

90+% are bullshite, in Scruffy’s professional opinion.

It is a cheap way for people to fly with their animals.

You have to factor in that the disabled are a bit less likely to drive and to have traditional employment- this may partially explain how noticeable the trend is in airports. I’m not saying some people aren’t exaggerating the need, but who cares? Better some people get away it than legitimately handicapped people get stink eye because they “look fine”
