Act 869, Alabama Statutes of 1975, Section 21-7-1 through 21-7-10
Chapter 7

Alabama statutory law guarantees a blind person the legal right to be
accompanied by a specially trained dog guide in all public
accommodations and conveyances.  No additional charge can be levied
because of the presence of the dog, but the dog guide user is liable for
any property damage attributable to the dog.

Public accommodations, for the purpose of this statute, include such
places as hotels, restaurants, stores, public buildings, places of
amusement and recreation, and any other facilities to which the public
is invited. (*21-7-3,*21-7-2)

Conveyances include airplanes, trains, buses, boats, public elevators,
and all other transportation services offered for public use. (*21-7-3)

Housing, except for rented rooms in a private dwelling, cannot be denied
to a dog guide user either because of his or her blindness or because
he or she has a dog guide. The landlord, however, is not responsible for
modifying the premises in any way. (*21-7-9)

Violation: Any person, firm, corporation or agent thereof who violates
the above enumerated rights is guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to
appropriate penalty. (*21-7-5)
