Good. It cheapens those with real service dogs and real needs. Taking advantage of the system with improperly trained “emotional therapy” animals who misbehave makes it harder for legit service dogs to have credibility in the real world. I have a friend with a legit service animal need who always gets crap from the public or employees at restaurants/businesses. My friend reminds employees of businesses about discrimination and then politely lets them know vaguely what the dog is for. But this is all because people are abusing the system with emotional ponies, therapy snakes, etc..
I took an international flight a few months ago and overheard the flight attendant talking to a passenger and mocking how lenient our service dog rules are.
