In March's webinar, Zerlinda was joined by Ilario and Tanya. They discussed exactly what you need to know when it comes to having guide, hearing and assistance dogs as well as emotional support pets in community schemes.
Please note that due to a technical error, there is a brief jump in the recording towards the end of the session.
This discussion covered:
- Legal grey area for guide, hearing and assistance animals in South Africa.
- Emotional support pets sometimes used to bypass no-pet rules.
- Lack of formal training or registration for emotional support animals.
- Concerns about interference with trained assistance animals and public perception.
- What schemes need to have in place in terms of accessibility.
