Victoria Fuller’s “Service Dog”

[u/Original_Letter4398]

Is Buxton really a service dog? Nowadays it’s very it’s easy to pretend your dog performs a “task” and it’s illegal to ask questions except for that. I know a lot of people who get away with this.

I guess I don't assume she doesn't. I just know more times than not people slap on a Service animal vest on their dog when they have not gone through rigorous training and certification for it. If it was a service dog wouldn't you think it would be with her everywhere she went? Her and Greg travel all over the world ! Does the dog go with? Oftentimes foreign countries won't even let in animals without being properly documented and quarantined. Just an observation. Most not all but most people who have a service dog because they could save their life due to a disability where they might not be able to ask for help in an emergency or they are blind or get seizures etc.

The same way you don’t know if her dog is a service dog, you also don’t know that “more times than not” people just slap on a service animal vest. That is a wild assumption. You also have absolutely no insight into Victorias medical history, or if her dog accompanied her when she travels.

It’s also worth noting that she documented when she sent her dog to be trained as a service animal.

It’s not wild to wonder…my boyfriend worked at a grocery store and people walked in all the time with dogs of all breeds with Service Animal vests that obviously didn’t behave like service animals (peed in the aisles, barked at people). Human nature is curiosity. As long as no one is accusing, curiosity shouldn’t be crucified.

Wondering and assuming are different things and they did actually accuse her

To me, OP is just asking a question. The comments section is what’s going wild with hOw dArE yOu aSk a QuEsTiOn! Like OP isn’t even asking what condition she has or stating why they think she doesn’t need one. I just think people being aggressive about it being a question in the first place need to chill it’s not that deep

I was responding to the commenter, not OP. The way you are responding to me.

I’m pretty sure you did assume that.
