  • Ensure the service animal is licensed in the city or state where it's registered.
  • Take responsibility for any damage or harm caused by the service animal on campus or to others during college events.

  • Use harnesses, leashes, or tethers unless they interfere with the service animal's work or the individual's disability.
  • Ensure the dog is housebroken, clean up litter immediately, and dispose of it properly.
  • Remove the service animal from the premises if it exhibits unacceptable behavior that cannot be controlled.
  • Understand that violating these responsibilities may lead to disciplinary action.
