[nagdu] Tax Exemptions for Service Animals

[Marion & Martin]

Julie,
    I am going to look into it more deeply, but it seems that, from the 
information I have found about Florida's sales tax exemptions for guide and 
service dogs, that only their food is tax exempt. I will check with the 
Department of Revenue tomorrow to find out about supplies, e.g., leashes, 
collars, toys, etc., and let the list know!

Fraternally yours,
Marion
