In fact, service dogs have a pretty important job to do, which is why they have to go through extensive (and adorable) training that requires them to learn how to behave in all kinds of different situations, including sitting in the audience of a live production and shopping at the grocery store. Unfortunately, some animal lovers lie about their "service dogs," claiming their pets are on the clock as certified service pets when they haven't had any training. And one couple who appeared to do just that got busted in their lie recently, when their dog got into an altercation with an actual service dog on a flight. But, it's what happened next that has taken the internet by storm, highlighting how you should, and should not, behave around service dogs when you see them out in the world.

Sometimes being a crusty, musty dingleberry blocks your own blessings.
♬ Little Sparrow - Paul Alan Morris"Background: These people brought their dog that they called a service animal and freaked out that there was a blind man with an actual seeing eye dog sitting near them," Jen captioned the video, where the argument can be heard taking place in the background. "If you had a trained service animal, seeing another dog should not be an issue," the words on the screen continued.
She filmed herself getting up to move, and she could be heard having a conversation with the man while getting settled before asking him if anything like that had ever happened before. After the pair made their introductions, the video cut to a selfie featuring the two, where Jen said that she had "the best flight of her life" while traveling with her seatmate Ed, who she was later filmed walking off the plane with when they landed as a voice over thanked "the crusty, musty people" who raised a stink and let her move her seat in the first place.
People Are Angry That the Non-Service Dog Was Allowed Priority Seating
Commenters quickly came to the man (and his dog's) defense, saying that clearly there was only one service dog on that flight, and he belonged to Jen's seatmate.
"And this is why people with disabilities make a huge deal over people faking this kind of stuff, but we're told to 'chill out' or 'mind our business,'" another person wrote. "What may seem harmless to you is detrimental to millions, but screwing over the disabled is an American past time."
The OP Clearly Handled This the Right Way
De-escalated the problemShowed kindnessActed as a great seatmate
It looks like Jen and her new friend ended up having a great flight, despite the bumpy start. However, this interaction serves as such an important reminder of how people should behave around service dogs and their humans, and what you shouldn't do when traveling with pets.
