Domestic Animal Policy
Introduction and Definitions IHG Army Hotels will accept domestic animals provided the guest adheres to the following requirements. This Pet Policy applies to domestic animals (“pets”) and Emotional Support or Comfort Animals. While 
Emotional Support Animals or Comfort Animals are often used as part of a medical treatment plan as therapy animals, they are not considered service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). These support animals provide companionship, relieve loneliness, and sometimes help with depression, anxiety, and certain phobias, but do not have special training to perform tasks that assist people with disabilities. Even though some states have laws defining therapy animals, these animals are not limited to working with people with disabilities and therefore are not covered by federal laws protecting the use of service animals. Therapy animals provide people with therapeutic contact, usually in a clinical setting, to improve their physical, social, emotional, and/or cognitive functioning. If your animal is an Emotional Support or Comfort Animal, this Pet Policy applies.

Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting, and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. If you have a Service Animal, please review the separate Service Animal guidelines in this document. Note: A growing number of states have passed laws making it illegal to falsely claim that you are entitled to be accompanied by a service animal. In some states, it is illegal to falsely misrepresent that your pet or other animal is a service animal (by, for example, putting your dog in a "guide dog" or "service dog" vest). The penalties for violating these laws vary by state.
