The handicap signs are required and controlled by the state under state law.
The problem with service dogs is that the state cannot require anything that would supercede a Federal law. The Federal disability law specifically provides that the owner of a service dog does not need any documentation for the dog. So, no state could enact the requirement you suggest.
