IF HE IS TRAINED TO DO THE WORK THEN THEY SHOULD LET HIM WORK. THEY SHOULD NOT DISCRIMINATE BECAUSE OF WHO HE IS. HE SAVES LIVES THAT IS WHAT HE DOES.

A life-saving dog banned from the beach because of laws against no dogs on the beach? Give me a break!

Other types of working dogs are allowed to go where needed, so why not this dog? Shameful.
