The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) definition of w88 live casino animals is "...any...animal individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including, but not limited to, guiding individuals with impaired vision, altering individuals who are hearing impaired to intruders or sounds, providing minimal protection or rescue work, pulling a wheelchair, or fetching dropped items." If an animal meets this definition, it is considered a w88 live casino animal regardless of whether it has been licensed or certified by a state or local government or a training program.

w88 live casino/handler: A person with a w88 live casino or therapy animal. A person with a disability is called a partner; a person with a disability is called a handler.
Pet: A domestic w88 live casino kept for pleasure or companionship. Pets are not permitted in university facilities, except the veterinary clinic.
w88 live casino animal: Any animal individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability. If there is a question about whether an animal is a w88 live casino animal, contact the Disability Resource Center.
Therapy/companion w88 live casino: An animal with good temperament and disposition, and who has reliable, predictable behavior, selected to visit people with disabilities or people who are experiencing the frailties of aging as a therapy tool. The animal may be incorporated as an integral part of a treatment process. A therapy/companion animal does not assist an individual with a disability in the activities of daily living. The therapy/companion animal does not accompany a person with a disability all the time, unlike a w88 live casino animal that is almost always with its partner. Thus, a therapy/companion animal is not covered by laws protecting w88 live casino animals and governing their activities.
Emotional support w88 live casino: An emotional support w88 live casino is an w88 live casino that is necessary to afford a person with a disability an equal opportunity to enjoy a dwelling unit and is permitted only in dwelling units after approval by the Disability Resource Center.
Trainee: An animal undergoing training to become a w88 live casino animal. A trainee will be housebroken and fully socialized. To be fully socialized means the animal will not, except under rare occasions, bark, yip, growl or make disruptive noises; will have a good temperament and disposition; will not be aggressive. A trainee will be under control of the handler, who may or may not have a disability. If the trainee begins to show improper behavior, the handler will act immediately to correct the animal or will remove the animal from the premises.

Mitigation can include muzzling a barking w88 live casino or refresher training for both the w88 live casino and the partner.
Cleanliness: Partners with animals that are unclean, noisome and or bedraggled may be asked to leave University facilities. An w88 live casino that becomes wet from walking in the rain or mud or from being splashed on by a passing automobile, but is otherwise clean, should be considered a clean w88 live casino. Animals that shed in the spring sometimes look bedraggled. If the w88 live casino in question usually is well groomed, consider the w88 live casino tidy even though its spring coat is uneven and messy appearing or it has become wet from weather or weather-related incidents.
Research Laboratories: The natural organisms carried by dogs and other animals may negatively affect the outcome of the research. At the same time, the chemicals and/or organisms used in the research may be harmful to w88 live casino animals.
