Last week, I went to Washington DC for a family vacation. A nice night out with my wife was ruined when an #Uber driver refused my seeing eye dog. We had to argue with the driver, get out, wait ten minutes for another ride, file a report, and speak with a case agent. In the end, Uber only refunded my ride and closed the case without telling me the outcome of my complaint. This is my second #GuideDog denial by Uber drivers. #Discrimination #ADA #Accessibility #Disability #ServiceDog

Hey @eldavey where did you get yours for Tiarnan? @Pawpower Hey #ServiceDog and #GuideDog folks, Does anyone have suggestions for where to buy a vest-style nylon harness? I need a momentum handle attached at the shoulders and a counterbalance handle over the shoulders. The person who made my other harnesses can't really do it. I would just reuse an old harness but my current trainee is 100 lbs and none of my equipment for 50-70 lb dogs fits her properly. TIA for any help or suggestions.

I was recently informed by my building administrator that there is another tenant living in the building who says she has a service dog, and has "papers" for it. It is a 2-yo pitbull, and has attacked a 5-yo child as well as other adults. The staff member wanted to make me aware of the issue. She didn't tell me where the tenant lives, but she did tell me the areas of the building that she frequents with the dog, and what entrance she uses. They are at a loss as how to prove her service dog is fake, which they and I are sure it is. No service dog should attack anyone ever. I decided to do a quick google search just for the heck of it, and although I was very specific, I got a page of results featuring websites that offer service dog certificates. This just proves how easy it is to create fraudulent service dog licenses. If anyone has ideas of who I could tell the building to contact, I'd love to hear them. I did tell the staff member that just being a service dog, whether or not it can be proved that it's legit, doesn't mean the dog can behave any way it wants and it will be protected. It has to be clean and well mannered, otherwise the dog and its handler can be legally removed from an establishment. I've also considered the possibility that maybe there is no legal way out of this, but surely if the license is fraudulent, there must be a way to prove it.

There's a provision in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that says disabled people have the right to train their own service dogs. Maya Cruz writes for @TeenVogue about the joys and challenges of training Rosalie, who helps her manage the symptoms of her obsessive compulsive disorder, and talks to other young disabled people about their experiences. “In the training process, you just learn how to advocate for your dog — you learn how to ask for things, and how to say, I just need to take a moment, my dog needs a break," says Carmen, whose dog is called Pochita. "And I’ve learned how to do that for myself now, too. I have learned that this dog is going to give me access to the world, and I deserve that access. Now, I tell myself, you deserve this. But I started by learning how to advocate for my dog.”

Teen Vogue · The ADA Allows You to Train Your Own Service Dog. These Disabled Creators Are Doing it on TikTokBy Maya Cruz

So #ServiceDog Callisto's new "big girl" guide/counterbalance harness arrived and we're going to take our first walk with it and wow, it's so ... stiff and new and I love it but it'll take some getting used to. Also I now need to buy her a matching collar because she was using one of Phee's old pink harnesses so I had her in a pink collar but her new one is indigo. I want to find her an indigo collar with moons and stars.

So far today #ServiceDog Callisto has retrieved one dropped inhaler and one of those little plastic dealies that they use to show the milk carton has remained sealed and hasn't been tampered with. We are now about to tackle laundry in the oven dryer. I call it the oven dryer because the door opens out and down like an oven. I didn't realize this when I bought it so it's fun times. Hoping to get video with the smart glasses.
