Susan, I think that this is an exceptional idea ! I am a senior lady, and my little Chipper is certainly a lot of emotional support for me, and I think that my doctor would certainly sign whatever paperwork is necessary.
I doubt that this I s abused a lot, since most people that have a pet declared an ESA would usually be considerate of other people, and of taking the animal in an inappropriate place.
I certainly understand that restaurants don't want dogs and cats in the establishment, and unless it were necessary, I would never try to bring Chipper inside.
But I do occasionally take trips on an airplane with my daughter, and would like to be able to bring Chipper along with me, and certainly would not want the little fellow stuck in with the luggage somewhere.
