Washington State has adopted a new rule regarding service animals:
New May 1! Service animals in food establishments will be
defined ONLY as a dog (or miniature horse).
For food establishments only, a service animal can only be a dog (or
miniature horse) that is individually trained to work or perform tasks for
an individual with a disability. Disabilities include physical, sensory,
psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability, as specified in RCW
49.60.218.

The previous rule was:
(25) "Service animal" means an
animal that is trained for the purpose of assisting or
accommodating a disabled person's sensory, mental, or physical disability.
