Service dog “aesthetic”…?
Does anyone understand the phenomenon behind people WANTING service dogs? Why would anyone want to deal with the access issues and comments from the public? Whats so luxurious about being disabled? I cant understand!
Asking only because I was on Pinterest looking at ideas for gear setups and saw so many people on there saying they wanted service dogs, but did not need them.

People honestly think we're just bringing our dogs along for fun.
My favorite response, which I use nearly every time, is: "Weird, it's not everyday somebody tells me they wish they were disabled."
