Therapy Dog Federal Case | Co-op Board | Habitat Magazine

Therapy Dog Federal Case | Co-op Board | Habitat Magazine
Heartless or clueless? The board of a no-pet seniors co-op on Long Island unleashed the hounds on a frail old woman who owned what her doctors called a therapy dog. Now, after the dog's removal and the woman's death, the situation has become literally a federal case about discrimination against the disabled.

If it takes a death, 3 years, and the power and resources of the federal government to investigate an association for wrongdoing, what recourse do most of us have?

Of course, the only lawyers that the folks at Overlawyered.com have a problem with are those who represent individuals against corporations.

Corporate lawyers who abuse individuals are just swell according to their right-wing ideology.
