Service Animals

Qualified service animals assisting people with disabilities are allowed and must be kept on a six-foot "hard" (non-retractable) leash at all times. They are allowed in all park facilities and on all park trails unless the area is closed. A service animal is defined as a dog, and in rare cases a miniature horse, that performs some of the functions and tasks that the individual with a disability cannot perform such as carrying a pack for persons with mobility impairments, assisting persons with balance, or alerting medically-dependent persons of specific conditions such as oncoming seizures.

Emotional support, therapy, and companion animals are not service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA); they have not been trained to provide a task directly related to a disability. Regardless of type, they are subject to the same guidelines as other pets.
