What do you need for a service dog?

The proper licensing and documentation for a legit service animal. Check with State of New York for specific terms and requirements.

Documentation

The following is our policy regarding Service Animals: For your animal’s safety, pets are not permitted. Service animals are welcome. Service animals are defined in section III-4.2300 of the Title III Technical Assistance Manual to include any guide dog, signal dog (e.g., a “hearing dog”), or other animal individually trained to do work or provide assistance to an individual with a disability. We do not permit Emotional Support Animals, sometimes referred to ESAs.

It's illegal to ask for documentation for a service animal. The owner does not need to show paperwork or disclose the nature of their disability.
