Opps, not so. I know someone who regularly takes their little dog into Publix. When asked what the service is for, the owner responds, "I have diabetes" (it is NOT a service animal). Of course, it's not "politically correct" to ask this, but not everyone is up on all the rules and regulations governing dogs. ONLY certified Service animals are allowed in areas where there is food. COMFORT (aka Emotional Support Animals) are NOT allowed in any food areas (eg. Supermarkets, restaurants, etc.) But I have yet to see anyone eject them. I love dogs and have had many over the years. I am not selfish enough to think they have to accompany me everywhere!
