YouTube Description
as posted by the channelTherapy pets are easily mistaken for regular pets, but there’s one key difference: Therapy pets are permitted to travel on planes with their owners, for free.
All it takes is a doctor’s note confirming you have an emotional disorder, which can be obtained online or over the phone, and your pet qualifies for a lifetime registration.

Studies show therapy animals can reduce stress, but it’s not clear how many registered owners are truly in need.
