As a disabled person who uses a service dog and is also a snake and reptile owner I have to reply to this post.
Snakes used to treat depression would be classified as therapy animals not service animals. Therapy animals are not given public access.
The difference between a service animal and a therapy animal is training. A service animal must perform certain tasks for the disabled person. These tasks require a great deal of training.
AS much as I love my reptiles, they simply cannot be trained and/or are physically incapable of performing these tasks.
