Elizabeth Hartranft said the mood of her trip took a sharp turn after a late-night message from her Airbnb host telling her to leave because of her service dog.

For Elizabeth Hartranft , a February trip with her husband from North Dakota to Tampa was supposed to be a getaway.

"My dog is a medical device. He is a seizure-alert-certified service dog. And I want the community to understand I have my rights to do my own thing just as you do," she said. "Whether it's a service animal or not, if you're a business owner and the dog is out of control, and the person does not take effective measure to correct the behavior, you can have that dog removed as well," he said.An excerpt from Hartranft's HCSO report found that the host violated Florida state statute 413.08, which states:

"I realized that they just couldn't function in a civilian environment that they needed something that was created just for them. And putting them together with other veterans with the same diagnosis would give them the camaraderie that they were missing," she said. "It provides them with a piece of their life back. That they might not have had for a long while," he said.

So, to help prepare veterans for the real world, part of Peter's program includes “real-life scenario stations" — where they run through simulations of service dog denials and other potential stumbling blocks."It's the fake service dogs that have made the issues so hard and places don't want to let dogs in, and real service dogs in anymore," said Peter.

"When we're thinking about emotional support, think of the presence of the animal the therapeutic intervention. However, when you're working with a service dog, there's specific tasks that they do," he said.
