Man registers a bee hive as an emotional support animal

[Catherine]

Quote: These applications can minimise the work of a true Service animal, I think.

This is the whole point of why he registered his bees. All our pets are a support for us and us for them.
Trained dogs are something else again. They are taught to use telephones to get help and to warn people of seizures about to happen.
These trained dogs are working dogs and they take their work seriously. They deserve special considerations and privileges. 

Pets that make us feel good are not the same thing.
If nothing is done to regulate things then real working dogs are going to find it harder to get respect and to do their jobs.
