True. Plus, you can go online and buy a service dog coat, photo i.d. and service badge without providing any proof of disability or dog training. I checked this out because we took our dog overseas and, having no car, wanted to be able to take him on the metro. I chickened out (not much of a rule breaker). We walked him everywhere instead.
