[QUOTE=LitespeedRider;1313351. A service animal (as is stated in the law) does not necessarily need to be on leash (or, again wearing any vests or bandanas).[/QUOTE]

Actually according to the revised ADA Guidelines, a service dog does have to be leashed or harnessed.

The guidelines also say that the two animals that can be recognized as service animals are dogs and miniature horses - nothing else. Both have to be housebroken in order to be called service animals. I never knew that horses could be housebroken- I learned something today!
