Ellis,

	Counting a service dog as a person is akin to counting a wheelchair
as a person. If they are using this irrational reasoning to deny you access
with your dog they are discriminating against you and you should object. The
implementing regulations of the ADA are very clear on this issue. If you
need some guidance, please feel free to give me a call. My contact
information is below my signature.

Fraternally yours,

Marion Gwizdala, President

High expectations create unlimited potential for the blind!

Elise, I've never heard of counting a dog as a person.  That's really
strange.  Anyway, I think they should really change that 
policy.     Debby
