Wonder if that meets the legal definition of a service dog....

... once it is established an animal is a service animal, it is illegal to inquire any further about what service it provides.

Let's hope he settles for a bucket of chicken.

People like Hernandez are who that hurts.

several people that it isn't at all uncommon over there to see people take their pets into shops and restaurants. I've been to places here in the U.S. that allow it, too. I don't see the harm as long as the animal is trained well, but some places have policies against it and people need to respect that.

My German friends were horrified and shocked when I told them we could not do that in the states.

I was in a restaurant here in the states and a lady had her service dog with her.
It was lying quietly under the table bothering no one.
I commented to our waitress about what a great thing service dogs are. She made some snide remark so I didn't continue. Her tip was greatly reduced.

I only wish folks could live in others shoes to see what their life is like before making judgements.
