Q&A: What do you need an emotional support animal for?

Answer: As their name implies, emotional support animals (ESAs) help people emotionally. They benefit those who are battling with anxiety and depression. For example, students cope better with exams with an ESA around. Victims of traumatic events who suffer from PTSD can get stressed easily, and an ESA alleviates symptoms of stress. 

Do you own an assistance animal? Register your pet. 

The Service Animal Registry of California invites you to have your assistance animal registered in order to designate its status. We also encourage you to take our online classes so you can be fully aware of your rights and gain more knowledge about your support animal.

Finally, we present to you our book entitled, “ASSISTANCE ANIMAL LAWS: LEARN YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING SERVICE ANIMALS, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS, THERAPY PETS, AND OTHER DOGS, CATS, AND ASSISTANCE ANIMALS” to provide you with a complete education on assistance animals.
