I think the best way to deal with thos would be to purchase the most ridiculous animal ever and claim that it is ones service animal, Boa Constrictor, Elephant, Liger, Emu, all come to mind.

From my recent continuing education:
"The FHA and Section 504 do not exclude emotional support animals from their protections.
What does this mean?
It means that people with disabilities may request a reasonable accommodation to allow an emotional support animal to live with them even if their housing has restrictions or prohibitions on pets.
The issue then becomes whether the person with a disability needs the animal in order to have an equal opportunity to use and enjoy the housing or housing program. To make this argument, the person with a disability must make a request for a reasonable accommodation to the landlord, property manager or homeowners association (HOA) and provide the following information:
Indicate that you have a disability
Request that, as a reasonable accommodation of your disability, you are seeking to have an emotional support animal live with you
Describe the relationship between your disability and the assistance the animal provides
If you can show each of these three things, a housing provider or program must permit the animal to live with you unless it can demonstrate that allowing the animal would pose an undue financial or administrative burden or would fundamentally alter the nature of the housing or program."
Though the wording indicates a landlord can attempt to demonstrate that allowing the animal poses undue financial or administrative burden, there was not a successful appeal to date.
Examples included: different types of pigs, a small pony (yes, living inside), rabbits, mice, rats, and snakes.
I did not think at the time to ask if wild or exotic animals prohibited by the Department of Wildlife might be allowed with a permit.
Interesting

People do not get to touch her unless she sits or lays down if it is a small kid. This dog will most likely hurt you if you were too try to walk into the house if she does not know you and my wife. Why the hell can't people control there kids in public just as well. I would leave her in the truck for fifteen minutes that I would be in the store but then people would call the cops even with the windows down. I have only used positive methods to teach her and a shock only when hunting because she will get a little to focused when hunting. When asked if she is a service dog the answer is always no and then I ask if they would like me to shop somewhere if it is a store employee.
I used to have a service dog. But then it killed a large neighborhood porcupine.
I had a guy with an enormous "emotional support animal" removed from my plane once. The dog was so big it wouldn't fit under the seat and blocked the aisle. He lost his mind over it told me he was going to sue everyone in sight for discrimination. I showed him the relevant regulation in 14 CFR 382 that essentially says the animal can't block emergency egress and he nearly had a stroke. Airport police had to escort him off the plane.
His emotional support animal was with him the entire time but he still went crazy. I guess his dog wasn't working that day.
A passenger that was by him before boarding later told the FA that he was laughing with his girlfriend about getting their dog to Orlando for free.
To be clear, I don't care one way or another about the service animals or comfort animals on the plane. You say your monkey is there to keep you from losing your sh$# in flight then I'm fine with that. It needs to be clear of the aisle and not block anyone from emergency exit access though. And anyone with an animal of any kind (pet, service/DOD, emotional support etc) should absolutely be financially responsible if not physically responsible for cleaning up when the animal urinates or craps on a plane or in the terminal. I've lost count of how many times I've seen a dog lift a leg in the concourse.
If you have a dog, train it. Train it well. Or leave it at home.
Dogs aren't mentioned in the constitution.
