    The town that my wife is from had one like that at a car wash... could go wash your car and puppy at the same time. Good idea I thought. Never seen one at a truck stop.

    That's true but, I think, therapy animals are covered by the Fair Housing Act....

    ME TOO, just don't know where to start looking. My Autistic son qualifies for one but for Autistic kids cost is almost $20,000

    Try talking to some of your local organizations that help out. I'm thinking Elks, Eagles, Shriners etc.

    Therapy dog, not service dog. Service dog does a function that the owner is physically incapable of doing. Seeing eye dogs are the most common, but there are hearing ear dogs too.

    Therapy dogs do wonderful work with PTSD and autistic, but let's face it, almost any dog, pushing its wet nose under the hand of these people will do wonders!

    And so did you mention this to the manager? If not why not?
    Complaining here in social media won't get anything done about a problem.

    Flying J was told not to push the issue as it might hurt someone's feelings and they complain on social media and make them look bad. Boo whoo

    Well, if the posts here are any yardstick to go with, this is as big a problem as drivers parking on the fuel island...
