    Service dogs should be limited to people who really need them because they conflict with people who have dog allergies.

      That’s easy to solve. We just give them an allergy service dog that warns about potential allergens and chases them away if needed.

        Hypo is does not mean they don’t trigger allergies. Just less.

            Do you think people who don’t need them should be allowed hyperallergenic dogs in an airplane?
