Transporters and Locations (County and State)

This is just a general sort of thing to ensure you are knowledgeable on what each one is and you are not falling for one of those online scams I keep seeing around!

Emotional Support Animal: "Emotional Support Animals are not required to undergo specialized training. Their primary roles are to provide their disabled owners with emotional comfort. Emotional support animals can benefit a disabled individual, psychologically, tremendously. The seemingly basic gift of companionship and unconditional affection can be just the right therapy to counter a condition like debilitating depression."

"While the ADA does not grant owners of emotional support animals the right to be accompanied by these animals in establishments that do not permit pets, the DOJ/HUD’s Fair Housing Act does allow for disabled owners of emotional support animals to reside in housing that has a “No Pets” policy, as a reasonable accommodation. The DOT’s Air Carrier Access Act also allows those with proof of a disability the accommodation of being accompanied by an emotional support animal. "

You have to be prescribed an emotional support animal through your counselor or a like person. You do not register emotional support animals and anywhere online you have to pay for registration is a scam.

You can have any domestic specie of animal as an emotional support animal.

Therapy Animals: "Therapy animals also receive extensive training but have a completely different type of job from service dogs. Their responsibilities are to provide psychological or physiological therapy to individuals other than their handlers; who are usually their owners. These animals have stable temperaments and friendly, easy-going personalities. Typically, they visit various institutions like hospitals, schools, hospices, psychotherapy offices, nursing homes and more. Unlike service dogs, therapy animals are encouraged to socialize and interact with a variety of people while they’re on-duty."

"Somewhat similar to service dogs, therapy animals can have a variety of jobs. While most people are familiar with therapy animals who visit places like hospitals, nursing homes and hospices to provide emotional therapy, these are not the only environments in which therapy animals can be beneficial. Therapy animals may also visit schools, day cares, group homes and rehabilitation centers. Their roles vary, from animals who give learning disabled children the confidence to read out loud to actively participating in physical rehabilitation therapy. In some cases, a therapy animal will work in a particular establishment exclusively, like a psychotherapy practice."

"Therapy animals may be trained by just about anyone, but must meet the standards set by a particular organization to be certified and actively participate within the respective organization. They are usually handled by their owners, but in some cases of Animal Assisted Therapy, the therapy animal may be handled by a trained professional."

"It is important to note that, despite thorough training, certification and the therapeutic benefits therapy animals provide, they do not have the same jobs or legal designation as service dogs. While some institutions offer therapy animals access on a case by case for the benefit of patients, guests, customers or clientele, the handlers or owners of therapy dogs do not have the same rights to be accompanied by these in places where pets are not permitted."

Therapy Animals can be any sort of animals but more often than not they are dogs. The above explains what to do to get one.

Service Dogs and Miniature Horses: "Service Dogs are individually trained to perform tasks and do work that mitigate their handlers’ disabilities. Service dogs are much more than highly trained companions. Working as part of a team with their disabled partners, service dogs help them attain the safety and independence from which their handlers’ disabilities would otherwise limit them."

"The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects the rights of people with disabilities to be accompanied by their service dogs in public places, like businesses, restaurants, grocery stores, hotels, etc. Additional acts of law, like the DOT’s Air Carrier Access Act, DOJ/HUD Fair Housing Act and Federal Rehabilitation Act protect the rights of people with disabilities to be accompanied by their service animals under a wide variety of circumstances under which the ADA may not be applicable."

Only Miniature Horses and Dogs can be service animals.
