Hi Ruth, We certainly struggled with one rule for all corners of the UW (including our hospitals and clinics). Here is our Washington Administrative Code chapter (Chapter 478-128 WAC) Animal Control at the University of Washington<http://www.washington.edu/admin/rules/policies/WAC/478-128TOC.html>. We discuss and define pets, service animals, working animals (including therapy animals), wildlife, research animals, and animal mascots.
