Service Dog and Emotional Support Animal Registration 101.

Service Animals perform many different tasks for those in need. Registering your service dog is not federally mandatory or compulsory. It is voluntary but could make it easier to ensure your rights are respected. Emotional Support Dogs, or commonly referred to as ESA (Emotional Support Animal) provide healing to their owner through affection and companionship. Getting an evaluation and a signed letter from a licensed therapist and registering your dog as an ESA Dog is also NOT mandated but doing so can help to ensure you maximize your rights and benefits.

Registering your pet as a service or emotional support animal can be a beneficial process for both you and your furry friend. Service animals provide support and assistance to individuals with disabilities. ESA's facilitate healing through companionship. These animals help people navigate their daily lives with more ease and independence. If you believe your pet has the potential to serve as a service animal or ESA, here are some steps you can take to register them:

1. Determine if your pet qualifies: Not all pets are suitable to be service animals. Only dogs and, in some cases, miniature horses are recognized as service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Your pet must also be well-behaved, obedient, and able to perform specific tasks to qualify as a service animal.2. Get a letter of recommendation: To register your pet as a service animal, you will need a letter of recommendation from a licensed healthcare provider stating that you have a disability and that your pet provides support or assistance related to your disability. This letter is crucial for establishing the necessity of having a service animal.3. Train your pet: Service animals are required to be well-trained and able to perform specific tasks that aid in their owner's disability. If your pet is not already trained, you may need to work with a professional trainer to teach them the necessary skills.4. Register your pet: Once you have all the necessary documentation and your pet is trained, you can register them as a service animal. There are various organizations that offer service animal registration services, such as The People's Pets. Registering your pet will provide you with an official certification and identification for your service animal.5. Understand your rights: As a service animal owner, it's important to be aware of your rights and responsibilities. Service animals are allowed to accompany their owners in public places, including restaurants, hotels, and transportation services. However, it's important to remember that service animals are not required to wear specific vests or carry documentation, as their training and behavior should speak for themselves.
By following these steps and voluntarily registering your pet as a service animal, you can add a layer of supporting documentation supporting your pet's identity as a service or emotional support animal. This will help to ensure you have the companionship and support of your furry friend wherever you go. The People's Pets is here to provide information surrounding the registration process and to urge you to do proper research so that you know your rights. We want to make sure your service or emotional support animal is recognized and respected in all settings.

OUR GOALS

    FOOD: No one should have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pets. All pet food donations will go to families with pet companions in need.

    LOVE: We are created for one another. People need people and people need pets. The People's Plug fully supports the connection animal lovers have with their furry (or not so furry) animal companions.

    SHELTER: Our ultimate goal is to be able to provide a sanctuary/fostering facility for animals who have been displaced or given up due to various reasons including economic hardship.

We may have pets, but when it comes to unconditional love, they are the masters. - Donald L. Hicks
