Redefining the Americans with Disabilities Act definition of "service animal" to mean only "dog" is an injustice, and a grave erosion of the civil rights of disabled people. The new definition of service animals makes no provision for disabled people who are allergic to dogs, or who need an alternative species, and as such is government-sponsored discrimination against many disabled Americans. Reclassifying hundreds of existing monkeys, mini horses, and non-canine service animals as "pets" is unconscionable.
