I'd ask for the documentation from the training organization and a contact number. I have a feeling it doesn't exist, but I could be wrong.
http://www.assistancedogsinternational.org/ This should provide you with information, and maybe links to the alleged organization in your area.
Honestly it sounds like a pet with a fabricated justification. I'd also check with your house corporation and your Inter/national HQ as it may be an insurance issue. If she was in need of a registered and trained animal, with a documented disability, that's different, but I am thinking that is not the case.
