Yep. My wife and I did this and flew first class with two dogs. There is an element of "you cant ask me why I need this animal" from the ADA.
Then again, I had a therapist who vouched for this and actually do have mental health problems that my Shepherd without a doubt helps me with.
No way in hell I am putting the dogs in the cargo hold. The passengers around us and flight attendents were absolutely enamored with how well they behaved.
While I tend to agree that this has been abused - it frustrates me that obnoxious children get a pass.
