All of us at the Fair love animals but the fairgrounds are no place for pets. The Alaska State Fair is committed to the use of service animals by our guests with disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ADA states, \u201cService animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities.\u201d 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\u2019s disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as SERVICE animals under the ADA. SERVICE animals play an important role in ensuring the independence of people with disabilities, and it is the Fair\u2019s policy to welcome any animal that is individually trained to assist a person with a disability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For everyone\u2019s safety we ask that you leave your pets at home that includes comfort animals (Emotional Support Animals (ESAs), and Therapy Dogs). PETS are NOT ALLOWED since they do not receive special training and do not perform a specific task to help disabled owners. Crowds are not a good place for pets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please be sensitive to our guests with SERVICE animals. Visitors found to have fake service animals will be asked to leave the fairgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please read more about SERVICE Dogs and what is covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) here: https:\/\/www.ada.gov\/service_animals_2010.htm <\/a>or http:\/\/www.myassistancedoginc.org\/whats-the-difference-between-emotional-support-animals-therapy-animals-and-service-dogs\/<\/a> Here is a helpful guide to help those who are unable to afford the cost of a service animal as well as a list of accredited organizations who provide complete or partial financial assistance for several different causes and individuals in need. https:\/\/www.bankrate.com\/personal-finance\/how-to-afford-a-service-dog\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

- Decreasing the negative effects related to second hand smoke, an established cause of cancer and respiratory disease.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
