The answer is NO.
If you would like to take a service-animal-in-training out to public spaces, the ADA does not give you that legal right and it is up to local state, county or city laws or the individual business owner, employer, or landlord to grant you access rights for that animal that is still in training. But as soon as that animal has learned at least one trained task, then it may qualify as a service animal even while its training continues and additional tasks are learned.
Are you an owner of an assistance animal?
The Service Animal Registry of California invites you to have your assistance animal registered in order to designate its status. We also encourage you to take our online classes so you can be fully aware of your rights and gain more knowledge about your support animal.
Finally, we present to you our book entitled, “ASSISTANCE ANIMAL LAWS: LEARN YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING SERVICE ANIMALS, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS, THERAPY PETS, AND OTHER DOGS, CATS, AND ASSISTANCE ANIMALS” to provide you with a complete education on assistance animals.
