I’d believe a Chihuahua over a pit bull any day. Pit bulls were bred for killing and not as a service animal.
They should include documentation showing that the “service animal” has actually been trained to be one.
I was a landlord once, and a fellow landlord friend of mine sent me an ironclad contract which I incorporated into my property. I even rented to Section 8, a single mom with four kids. At one point they decided to have an aquarium. During one of my inspections as per the Housing Authority in the state where the house was located I noticed the aquarium and brought the issue to Bear to the renter with a warning. You have one week to remove this aquarium - you are not in compliance with the contract that was approved by the Section 8 Housing Office, and I will have the Section 8 Housing Office come here to evict you and you will be out of this property in short order. That’s all it took I had the backing of the state. And the renter never again delineated from the contract.
I saw a guy in walmart with a pit bull service dog. The guy looked like a skinhead. Apparently he was attacked and knifed in California so he kept a pit bull as a “service dog” because he had PTSD. He had a card.
Why just single out pit bulls, there are thousands upon thousands of bogus service dogs all over the country and the companies that sell fake certificates are well known. It should be a simple matter to deny anyone with a known false certificate, since all service dogs must pass formal training and testing that can’t be done by an internet shyster.
Wow. So pitbull owners would lie about their animal’s certification? Who knew...
Guess it’s just an extension of their make-believe world in which pits are harmless if trained properly.
