  1. No government affiliation. This Site is not owned or operated by, nor affiliated with the Government. This site is an independent organization providing service dog, emotional support dog, and therapy dog registration services, and is not affiliated with the ADA or any government agency. This website provides information on laws and legal topics related to Service Animals and Emotional Support Animals and use or purchase of products and/or services is not a requirement under any law and is designed to reduce conflicts while in public settings with your dog, and, while we believe all information to be accurate, is provided strictly “as is”, without warranty of any kind. Please obey all laws as they apply to your situation. We do not certify or authorize anyone to use a Service Animal nor is certification required by law. The privilege to use a Service or Assistance Animal is granted, under the law, by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and local governments. If you are unsure if you qualify, please consult a local Service Dog trainer or organization. Registration is conducted under the honor system and any individual found to violate our Terms and Conditions (which includes misrepresentation of a Service or Assistance Animal) will be expelled from our registry. Simply registering with us does not qualify an animal or an individual as a Service Dog Handler or provide any special rights, legal or otherwise. If someone found not to comply with our training or behavior standards we can remove or suspend their registration rendering any materials they have invalid. It is not required that Service and Assistance Dog handlers show or have identification in the form of a vest, special harness, training certificate or registration and nor is it required that animals are officially trained, certified or registered with any state, federal or independent organization.
