re: Pretending that Pomeranian is a service animal? New Texas law means you’ll get fined $1k

Southwest charges $95 per flight for your pet to be in the space beneath your feet.
They're rasing that to $125 next month. That's $250 for a round-trip ticket.
Yup, so there will be flights where our 13 lb dog that fits under the seat and no one knows she's there, will have a round-trip ticket that costs more than mine.

I would have zero problem banning small dogs in general if they dont serve a purpose.

am sure that you can just call your vet, pay a fee and poof, you have an official support animal. People that take their dogs everywhere need a life.
There is no official body which designates animals as “service animals”.

Just buy the dog’s ticket one way. The receipt they ask to see doesn’t specify which leg of the trip you bought it for.

It’s getting ridiculous… leave your damn dog at home when coming to the grocery store…

You have to bring the dog to the bag check counter and pay for each ticket. At least that's how SW does it.
Then, the gate agent checks itcwhen you board.

Good. Every state should follow suit.

I get random messages all of the time through Psychology Today asking me if I will sign a letter for their animal of choice to be a "service animal".
And while, theoretically, I could sign a letter for an Emotional Support Animal I refuse to do so.
First, a lot of people asking for an ESA don't understand they are not an official Service Animal like someone would have for seizures, blindness, etc. That's a whole different deal that requires a fully trained animal and ADA paperwork. Second, I would have to carry a rider on my liability insurance that's stupid expensive and would be assuming liability if I said someone could have an ESA and they harm the animal (or the animal harms someone else).
I honestly wish there was more standardization nationally for this.

But it's easy to prove. Real service animals (not emotional support shite) have a record of their training.

that may be true, but a business cannot compel that it be provided; all they can ask is: (1) is the dog a service animal required because of a disability, and (2) what work or task has the dog been trained to perform, per ADA title II and title III

Not sure why you're getting those requests...
ESA's don't qualify per new regs that the airlines told Congeess to approve.
The dog has to be trained, and you have to list the trainer's info on the form.
Idiots were bringing ostriches and calling them ESAs. Such bullshite.

It is also easy to see the difference if you have ever been around a service dog. They do not react to you or the surroundings, bark, relieve themselves, etc. They are trained. That is how you instantly know the difference. This is one of my biggest pet peeves.
