Maria, I guess it's like clown visits. You can't bring it in emergency care or post operation care units, but in normal stations.
I was asked once, if I would bring the parrot to entertain the old people in a geriatric hospital and longterm care unit. I wanted to, but then he started biting smelly people. I was afraid what the smell of drugs would do. "Service parrot's ferocious attack on frail elder people" was not a good headline to obtain. They had had dogs and even a pony in the garden, but no parrot.

Thanks for this update!
I couldn't figure out why Washington State laws stated I could not refuse a potential long term tenant due to Service animal, nor could I accept a 'non-refundable pet deposit', due to the animal being considered a 'prescription'.
I DID have a real estate managing this property, thus makes sense, I suppose.
But I did have questions regarding Hawaii laws.
Bingo!! I live on the premises, so questions and concerns have been resolved.
Thanks again!

I want a service monkey to take over my computer work 
And to wait on the phone for me when Airbnb puts me on hold -- listening to that one dumb song ---- 
And finally I want a service monkey to take the appropriate action with Airbnb's "no need to disclose" policy for guests with service animals:

THe "Fake Service Animals" are proliferating so much that some states are taking action: www.usatoday.com/story/news/2017/10/29/several-states-crack-down-fake-service-animals/807676001/Chris Slavin was in an elevator a couple years ago with Earle, her yellow lab service dog, sitting calmly beside her wheelchair. The elevator doors opened and in walked a woman holding a purse. In the purse was a teacup poodle the color of apricots. The doors closed just as the poodle spotted Earle. That’s when the trouble started. In an instant, the poodle leaped from the purse, flung himself at Earle, and clamped his teeth into the bigger dog’s snout, leaving Earle bleeding onto the elevator floor. “As soon as this occurred the woman said the poodle was a service dog,” said Slavin, who has a severe spinal injury that requires use of the wheelchair. “She then said he wasn’t a service dog but an emotional support dog. Finally, she admitted he was a pet she just wanted to bring in the building with her.” Incidents like that one in Reading, Massachusetts, not far from where Slavin lives in Danvers, have spurred 19 states to enact laws cracking down on people who try to pass off their pets as service animals. The push has been gathering steam in recent years: Virginia implemented its new law in 2016, and Colorado followed suit this year. Massachusetts is now considering a similar proposal. |
