I have a yorkie-poo that I am training to be my SD, I suffer from Hiv, Depression, and Anxiety with Panic Attacks, She is now potty trained, and she does not bark as a rule, she lets me know when someone is behind me. as well as she knows when I am in one of the above modes and when in a store sits quietly as I do about my shopping, she still is a puppy so she likes all people and does not growl or any of that, I am now training her the basic commands, potty-potty, sit, and lay and stay, She gives me so much comfort in going out where normally I might starve for a few days before doing so, so does this give me a right to have a SD, I was told by ADA that she was as I have a mental illness which might I add been in the hospital 5 times in the past, So my first time in 57 years of having a dog, I have to say she is giving me the greatest comfort and yet to try to use public transportation other then the bus which I had her in a carrier and a child kept peeking in which made her uncomfortable and she did do a whine growl which I think she was protecting her area, Now if the child had not been doing so I feel that on a few trips she would be actually too friendly out of the carrier and in my lap, so I want her classified as a SD not a companion dog or animal but think it should be for dogs only and not for cats, mice, rats and well you name it, but allot of people on here fit one of those catagogies I must say, as to me she is a SD dog, and I am training her myself as where am I going to get all that money to pay for one that I want a special breed that I can handle as well? so if you want to pay a professional what I can do then let me know, But until then do not walk in anyone shoes unless your willing to do so, and who is to say that the person that rosie was talking about actually did have an impairment? Hmmmmmm? anyone can make a joke but god why take things so seriously? that is my two cents to think about! To me there is too many that are jealous out there, yes true I am sure some use the law to their benefit but I have SSDI to prove mine! that should be the only proof one needs!

I'm not condoning Rosie because she wasn't saying it to hurt any of you, and maybe she wasn't thinking about what she said, however, what if we were allowed to take our good, well behaved companions around with us? I dream of the day when Animals are treated equal and with respect. I would love to take my furchild shopping or on the train. Of course people shouldn't bring untrained animals along, but most of us good animal owners have well behaved pets.

Its not uncommon for someone to mention that they have their dog 'certified' as a service dog so it can fly to shows etc. Of course the people have no legitimate dissability. Well, maybe its in between their ears and its mush LOL I belong on a few dog breed lists.

Im saying Im glad Brodie is. Now my first SD was not certified. I hope they never make it the law. Not everyone can aford it, & if I get another or when my husband gets another (as a drunk hit & killd his SD) then we will train it ourself. He is also a Vietnam Vet & had 2 heart surgerys and needs a power chair. They will not aprove him a new one, but said its good that he has one. This chair needs new batteries and tires. I doubt that they would give him a SD. I will not give up. Never I know we do not have to have our SD’s certified. Im saying Im glad Brodie is. Now my first SD was not certified.

The ADA does not require certification of service dogs at this time. Service dogs include dogs for hearing, assistance with mobility and guide dogs as well as dogs for persons with autism, seizure alert dogs, and other alert dogs including dogs trained to alert veteran's with PTSD to panic attacks. Rosie O'Donnell appears not to have much respect for herself when she spouts off at the mouth and disrespects persons with disabilities. Perhaps she is stuck in adolescence when saying things such as she said are said to make a person feel like they are superior. It only makes Rosie look ignorant. Can you imagine what she is teaching her kids! There are bills in Congress to approve funding to train service dogs for Veteran's with PTSD. It is cited in the latest IAADP newsletter. Call you Congressperson and ADVOCATE! :smile: Rosie O’Donnell is wrong! The ADA does not require certification of service dogs at this time.
