Service Dog Encounters
Service dog handlers must prepare for encountering other service dogs during outings. We can’t assume that other dogs are well-behaved. It could be a fake service dog.

One of the most important aspects to understand about service dog vests is this: they are optional. According to the ADA, it is not a requirement for an assistance dog to wear a vest of any kind. Many service dog handlers choose to have their service dog in a vest or harness, but it is not a requirement.
