Default Are service dogs really service dogs??

These dogs had comfort tags on them but I do not believe this is the same as a service dog. While these women were waiting for a seat they had the whole entrance blocked by the dogs. I do not feel that these large dogs, who could eat off the tables standing ip, should be in a dining establishment. I am also allergic to these breeds. (I had a toy poodle). I would like some opinions on this matter as I felt if I complained I would be causing a ruckus of ADA
I was married to an optician, she would not allow her lab to be put in the dog area on a plane, so she went on the internet and got a service dog vest. She was an optician so got thick lenses that would reverse her vision to normal, but looking at her you would think she was blind. She was not, just wanted to get her dog up in business class on the plane. You are starting to see a lot of people with service dogs . But you cant go up them and say are you really blind, etc... There are a few people out there getting carried away with this issue, I dont have to worry anymore. I divorced her, now she is still flying first class somewhere with her (service dog).
