One way to obtain a
service dog is to apply to a
reputable nonprofit
organization like Canine Companions for Independence or Guide
Dogs for the Blind, which are both in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Rescue
organizations or sites like the Shelter Exchange, a nonprofit
organization that provides a free Web
service that helps connect
dogs with adopters, should be able to suggest safe and
reputable transportation companies or volunteers.
Instead this measure has the potential to criminalize the lawful activities of
reputable breeders, pet stores, kennels, and charitable
organizations engaged in raising
service and assistance
dogs.
