most of you already know this you can't bring your pet dog inside restaurants in Tennessee well now that also includes emotional support animals thanks for staying up late with us tonight I'm Rory Johnston well Governor Bill Lee signed that measure into law just last week and it's a move drawing strong opinions from both sides our Nikki Hower learn more about what it all means for you this little guy changed her life I feel like I'm a different person I'm happier tiller G says three-year-old Arc
hie is her emotional support dog oh man before I got him I was just I had anxiety all the time I couldn't really sleep well now she takes him pretty much everywhere Arie come here there we go but she won't be able to take him here last week Governor Bill Lee signed a bill into law that prohibits emotional support animals inside restaurants we've had guests that were dining in that were disgusted by Seth Jurgen has seen it all as the owner of lcoa Cafe in Hendersonville like hey am I doing wrong
by this person by saying they can't have their you know their great D in the building or their St Bernard in the building the bill specifically says police dogs and service dogs are fine inside restaurants but it's those emotional support animals that aren't in training or trained to help someone with a disability that are not allowed and with legitimate service dogs they are always welcome here but for those that don't live up to that title thank you as cute as they are they'll have to stay out
side you don't want to turn someone away you know you you love the fact that you have paying customers walking through the door but you also have to accept the fact that you have other customers in in your establishment that are also paying as well and if you bring an animal in it might make them feel uncomfortable Nikki Hower News Channel 5 all right Nikki thanks official service dogs law enforcement Kines and believe it or not fish inside a tank are the only animals actually allowed inside our
restaurants
