Getting an ESA Letter for Dogs

What is an ESA Letter?

An Emotional Support Animal letter is a document from a licensed mental health professional. It says that your dog is needed for your emotional support. This letter helps you and your dog live in housing with no-pet policies and gives you some travel benefits.

How to Get an ESA Letter
1. Talk to a Mental Health Professional: Make an appointment with a therapist, psychologist, or psychiatrist. They will talk to you about your mental health and see if an emotional support dog would help.

2. Get Evaluated: During the appointment, explain why you need an emotional support dog. If the professional agrees, they will write an ESA letter for you.

3. Receive the Letter: The ESA letter should include the professional's contact information and state that you need an emotional support animal.


Benefits of an ESA Letter
* Housing: With an ESA letter, landlords must let you keep your emotional support dog, even if there is a no-pets policy.
* Travel: Some airlines allow emotional support animals in the cabin if you have an ESA letter and follow their rules.

Getting an ESA letter for your small dog is simple. A mental health professional can help you. With the letter, you and your dog can live and travel together more easily. Your emotional support needs will be recognized and protected.
