You can get a service dog for things like picking shit up off the ground floor you because you have a bad back. They have to pass level 3 obedience training which is very difficult and also Have service training. One of the tests for level 3 obedience is to lie down and stay perfectly still for 15 minutes while a bunch of people step over the dog constantly during that time. There actually aren't any legal requirements for service dog training. They just need to be trained to perform specific tasks. --- I are Serious Cat This is serious thread <cite>Serious Cat posted [p:948927490] in Alaska Air...

There's one legal requirement. You have to have a disability. You can't have a service dog without a disability. You can have a dog that was trained as a service dog but if they're not helping you with a disability they're not a service dog. The other requirements I mentioned are for private certification. Which is nice but not legally required. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv <cite>Tyranthraxus posted [p:948927971] in Alaska Air...
