There are also many doctors who may know their patient is disabled but doesn't really approve the use of a service dog so those people who truly have a need for a service dog may not get the papers they require. <br /><br />They also do not mention training of dogs. There are a lot of companies out there that say they train service dogs but the dogs turn out to be untrained in task. I just hope other states do not follow suit. <br />Thank you for stopping by and letting me know your views on this topic.Carma Poodalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02993146110262310568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8948093056109362121.post-22585318581417912822015-10-23T21:56:40.638-05:002015-10-23T21:56:40.638-05:00Having a voluntary ID is problematic at best.

The other big problem is the probability that the registration requires a doctor's note. Many doctors already pass out verification for handicap parking at the drop of a hat, people will be lining up to have doctors fill out a form that makes their pets "official" fake service dogs. California has a voluntary registration also, there was an article a year or two ago about all the fake dogs with official state tags, wish I had bookmarked it. <br /><br />Michigan laws needed to be updated, the 4th bill however does not help.Real Men Couponhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15458015321561827660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8948093056109362121.post-46088408967042224702015-10-23T11:19:16.901-05:002015-10-23T11:19:16.901-05:00Informative post.Informative post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239919473206923975noreply@blogger.com
