[NAGDU] the two questions

[Cindy Ray]

Julie, I have a sense that you could be right. We have someone coming to our church with a so-called service dog. She is in a wheelchair. The dog is not well behaved and whines all the way through the service. I haven't spoken with her yet because I'm afraid I would ask the questions. It wears a dirty sign that says it is working. She is not really very communicative, and when she wants help she is demanding and ungracious. I have not visited with her because I'm afraid I might ask her questions, but when she is at church again, I elieve I will reach out to her.

Subject: [NAGDU] the two questions

I think most everyone here knows the two questions the DOJ’s guidance on service animals under the ADA allows.
Is that a service dog?
and
What tasks does the dog perform?

However, my understanding is that it is the business that can ask these questions.  These questions aren’t open for anyone to ask and answers be required.   So I’m thinking that if there is an issue with another dog in a store, it isn’t up to the other shoppers to be asking the two questions.  It is up to the store management to ask and deal with any issues that come up.  

Thoughts?
