Question: Someone asks you why your animal isn’t wearing a vest or tag. What’s a good response?

Answer: “Under the ADA, there’s no requirement for any identifying gear or tags. There’s no registration or certification requirement. Each disabled owner can choose whether to have their Service Animal registered or wear gear or tags. For more privacy, I choose not to have mine wear anything that labels me as disabled.”

Do you own an assistance animal? Register your pet. 

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.
