I don't have dogs. I like them well enough but know that others don't or have issues when it comes to them. I respect humans enough to think that dogs don't need to be in themeparks. Unless there is a need of course.Really? WHY does what someone else do, really bug you? Maybe you are upset cause you didn't think of bringing your dog with you?As far as sitting next to a dog on a ride, I would rather sit next to a Dog than a HUMAN any day.

So one no longer takes their dog for a walk. They take them for a ride to get the fresh air and exercise?
I swear humans get sillier every day.
no dog can be a service dog in a zippered enclosed stroller.....that is what got me. they need to be banned....there are kennals for them.
A 3 POUND DOG??? I have an 18 lb cat. She'd eat that dog for lunch.
I wonder if they take them on bike rides in those stroller things that attach to bikes? It wouldn't surprise me. It's harmless I guess but....![]()

How can a dog that little be a service animal? None of my business, so I just kept on walking!
Okay, that just takes the cake for the service animal v. companion animal debate.![]()
I totally agree with you.. how can they be doing a service if they are in the zipped up area.. they cannot.. Who ever did this at AK did so not to pay for the kennels, and seems to have gotten away with it. Maybe the CM's will have to start looking in the strollers to see if there is a child or pet.. sad to say but I guess some will do what ever they can to get over..
I have definitely seen a rise in smaller service dogs, and I think it does cause some confusion with people who are not familiar with all the different ways that dogs can aide individuals with medical and mobility issues. I think people are pretty used to seeing labs working as seeing eye dogs and the like, but poodles, papillons and chihuahuas are becoming much more common. I ran into a very nice woman with a small service dog that rode in the basket of her EVC on my last trip.
One time I met a woman at Epcot who was involved in a SD training program. This dog was a puppy and the woman (who lived locally) brought the dog to the parks to get them used to crowds. My best friend from childhood's family used to raise SD so I thought it was so cool to meet another family who participated in this labor of love. I asked her what she did with the dog on rides and she told me that the dog could ride anything without a height restriction. So basically Spaceship Earth yes, test track, no!![]()
For a snake, I have no idea, but my friend just got a seizure dog for her daughter. When she is about to have a seizure, the dog alerts the family, they can ensure the daughter is in a safe spot, nothing in her mouth (she has a mouth guard they put in so she doesn't bite her tongue after havign it stiched back together ouch), etc.
I know there are seizure dogs but there is no way that a snake could let others know that the owner is having a seizure. How would it do it? Dogs bark and scrape their nails on the floor or nip someone on the leg. What would a snake do? Stick its tongue out or wrap itself around the neck of someone else?![]()
Are you sure it wasnt just a real ugly baby?
