Assistance animals
“Assistance animals provide an important service that helps some people to more fully participate in personal and public life activities with more confidence and independence (e.g., mobility guide; hearing assistance; diabetic, seizure alert or response; emotional support, etc.). Pets and companion animals are very important to many people.”
