This is not jut by saying to her what a good girl she is but actually reaching down and petting her without my permission. This is an illegal act and can and will be enforced as such if anyone distracting a service dog\u00a0causes the disabled to get injured.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These days big box stores such as Target and Walmart (both Framingham locations have been in health code violations) allow any animal to enter because they are afraid of a lawsuit by the customer without thinking about the damage it causes us or potential injuries to a customer by a non trained dog, thus making it impossible for those of us who use a service dog for a legitimate reason. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Per the ADA, \u201cService Dogs are not required to wear a vest, and the business can ask only 2 questions, is that a service dog and what task(s) has it been trained to perform.
