Like all service dogs, guide dogs still have access issues when entering some places.
Every major country has laws in place to protect the disabled including using their guide dogs.
Many businesses, restaurant's, taxis, apartments and others still refuse to accommodate service dogs.
In the US the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA 1990) is one of the many laws that protects service and guide dogs. Nearly each State has their own laws which give harsh penalties for violating these rights.
Denying a valid service/guide dog could cost a business many thousands of dollars in fines, penalties and even result in jail for the individual, depending on state laws.
