Keep the red one. As I said - service animals do NOT have any kind of official garments, or leashes. And ANYONE can buy a dog vest or leash with the words "Service Animal" written on them.
Consider this a learning opportunity for anyone who tries to treat your animal like a service animal. You can explain actual facts, and it'll be one less person who doesn't know any better in the world.
