Is Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson in possession of a service dog? If so, what is the purpose behind it, and when did her fans become aware of this? Let’s delve into the details surrounding the discovery of her service dog.
Throughout the years, fans have witnessed Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson grow up right before their eyes. From her early days on “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” as a young girl to her teenage years on “Mama June: From Not to Hot,” viewers have followed her journey. In the latest season of “Family Crisis,” Alana was a high school senior with a serious boyfriend named Dralin Carswell, and she was looking ahead to college. By the season finale, she had been accepted into her dream school, Regis University in Colorado, and had started her freshman year.
Following the passing of her sister, Anna Cardwell, from stage 4 adrenal carcinoma, Alana and her family have been spending a lot of time together. They even celebrated the holidays at Disney World. However, a recent Reddit thread has surfaced, revealing a discovery about Alana during this period. The original poster (OP) shared the following information:
“In Pumpkin’s latest TikTok, she mentioned having issues with Alana’s service animal at the parks. Why would she need a service dog, and is this the first time they’ve mentioned it?”
This revelation raises questions about whether fans had any prior knowledge of Alana having a service dog. Additionally, has anyone seen the dog accompanying Alana? Despite walking around Disney and being filmed, there is no sign of the dog. This prompted fellow Redditors to share their thoughts.
One Redditor suggested that it might be an emotional support animal (ESA) rather than a fully trained service dog. They noted that many places are starting to disallow ESAs. Another Redditor mentioned that Alana had gone live recently and explained that the dog is for her migraines. However, the Redditor expressed skepticism, claiming that the dog is a hyper little pug that Alana paid $300 online to obtain “emotional support status” for.
Another Redditor conducted some research and discovered that Disney allows service animals but does not permit emotional support animals in their parks. This led followers to believe that Alana expected special treatment and for the park to bend the rules for her. However, if they made an exception for her, they would have to do the same for everyone. As the thread continued, Redditors began questioning the legitimacy of Alana’s need for an ESA, suspecting that it was merely a way for her to have her dog with her wherever she wanted. It seems that her plan did not work out as intended.
