I am a dog person, I love them, hell I like them more than people. That said, I think the ADA should certify service dogs, and the owner should be required to produce proof of certification if they want to bring their service dog into restaurants and food stores. I didn't actually feel this way until recently. A member of a group I'm in, has a dog who wears a service vest. He brings the dog everywhere. The dog goes up to people to be petted, the dog barks at people it decides it should bark at. The owner doesn't even discipline the dog when she barks at people, which happened in a restaurant last week. If there was some sort of certification, not where they owner has to reveal their reason for needing a service dog, but to prove the dog was legit..... things like this would be eliminated.
