Seyfarth Synopsis: Miniature horses trained to perform work
or tasks for a person with a disability must be allowed in public
accommodations in most instances.
The news is not particularly uplifting these days, so we thought
our readers would enjoy seeing clips of former California Governor
Arnold Schwarzenegger's miniature horse, Whisky (the clips also
features Lulu, his mini-donkey) (see here and here). Under the ADA regulations, miniature horses that are
individually trained to perform work or tasks for a person with a
disability must be allowed in public accommodations just like a
service animal as long as they are housebroken, not too large,
under the owner's control, and would not compromise legitimate
safety requirements. We have no idea whether Whisky is trained to
perform any work or tasks for anyone, but (s)he is awfully
cute.
For more information about service animals, which the ADA
defines to only include dogs, check out this very helpful FAQ from the Department of Justice.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
