Turkeys actually make great pets. Very intelligent and playful.

Maybe domesticated versions...but the wild turkeys here are aggressive. I've been chased by a few of them trying to get to my car.

Was it the day before Thanksgiving? "Hi folks, we made it... and we brought the turkey!"

Just who was the individual who has a turkey for a "support animal?"

The emotional support animal thing is being regularly abused. No pet policy? Its a support animal. Business can't say anything about it. Same thing with landlords. It's time this mess gets put to a stop, or at least seriously reigned in.

I say the same about "emotional support dogs" period. The only service animals we should allow are small ponies and dogs trained to sniff blood sugar drops, assist the blind and the assist the deaf. That's all. I'm sick of seeing people bringing lap dogs with them and claiming they are emotionally Al support animals because they can't leave them at home.

I agree. I am all for seeing eye dogs and other service animals for PHYSICALLY disabled people. Mental issues not so much. BTW- I don't know if a "Pony" is necessary when a smaller dog could do the same job.

I think the rule should be expanded to those of us with emotional support giraffes and alligators. I mean, fair is fair, and animal discrimination is no joke.
