    Yeah well landlords in the US don’t get to just decide that they’re not going to accept it. Unless a request is completely unreasonable and until the law is changed, they must allow for emotional support animals.

    And it is most definitely not bullshit for those of us who actually need it. If you don’t actually have a disability and somehow acquired an ESA letter in order to skirt policies just to have your little buddy near you, then it is people like you we have to blame for hotels, restaurants, and other such companies no longer allowing emotional support animals on their premises.

      You just happily advertised what to do to get the landlord unable to reject a pet application and you’re calling me the problem lol.

      The emotional support animal for is a quick 2 minute form. There’s no validation or verification that it is an actual support animal. It’s a complete farce.

      A service dog can cover the areas you talk about but actually require training “Qualifying Conditions: Mobility problems, paralysis, diabetes, asthma, autism, depression, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), speech problems, social anxiety, epilepsy, blindness, deafness.”

        So you are a non-disabled person taking advantage of a weakly regulated system which is meant for disabled people to be able to live comfortably in their homes as protected under the Fair Housing Act of the United States and backed up by the Department of Housing and Urban Development - while calling an emotional support animal a pet and not knowing the difference between an emotional support animal and a service dog no less - and you think I’m wrong to be pissed at you and people like you for making it more difficult for those of us with actual needs? Get wrecked, son.

          Don’t know what you’re on about, but my dog died years ago. Again, you’re the one advertising it.
