 We live in a chaotic world with burdens and turmoil apparently around every bend; for some folks, these troubles can be unbearable. When this occurs, we may find ourselves doubting what we can do to help improve our emotional suffering.

Medications can be beneficial, but not everybody wants to go this way. Diet and exercise are helpful, but what happens if we are only too depressed to be motivated?

This is when an Emotional Support Animal may be a consideration.
In this post, we are going to take a tour around the world of the Emotional Support dog or Animal. Are you already having a pet? We will also answer the question of how do I register Emotional Support dog?Are you ready to qualify for an emotional support animal and get your documents online? If so, PDSC is a right platform for you.

An Emotional Support dog is an animal that is used to help improve the symptoms of numerous emotional or mental disabilities. These can contain (but are not limited to);
Depression
Anxiety
Phobias
PTSD
Panic Attacks

​The Emotional support animal is not considered a Service Animal and is therefore not given the same rights and privileges as a complete Service Animal. The Emotional Support Animal also does not have to be exactly trained to accomplish a task. It is there only to give relief and support to their owners.

The ESA can be any types of animal, it is one the benefits of ESA. Certain people use dogs, cats, rodents, birds, and even chickens as Emotional Support Animals.

Unlike an animal Service Dog that must be exactly qualified, the ESA can be an existing pet. However, taking an ESA will need a letter from a licensed mental health proficient – that is called “ESA letter” - is your key to having admittance to “no pets” policy rentals and bringing your Emotional support animal into the cabin of an airplane.

This “ESA Registration” is in the form of a letter. The ESA letter must cover the following information;

Written on your doctor’s letterhead

Doctor’s license number, the type of license, and the place in which it was issued
Date and doctor’s signature.

​It is vital to know that you do not have to register your ESA lawfully. Once you have the ESA letter from your attending mental health professional, your Emotional Support Animal will be official. So have a look at pdscenter.com and get a valid ESA letter!

My sister has a lot of anxiety and she is thinking about getting an emotional support animal, specifically a small dog, so I am glad that I found this article. It is interesting that you say emotional support animals are not given the same rights as service animals and thus they don't have to be trained in specific ways. Also, it makes sense that you need to get a letter from a licensed mental health professional stating the information about your service animal so that you can take it to places that may not normally allow pets. I appreciate this information and I will make sure to share it with my sister when she picks out a dog.
