Is it difficult to go through TSA Precheck with an emotional service animal? For example do we have to take the harness off since it has metal in it?

Hi @Lis,
Thanks for joining the Southwest Community, and posting your question!
Per the TSA's website (TSA.gov), you and your service dog/animal will be screened by a walk-through metal detector. You may walk through together or you may lead the animal through separately on a leash. You will undergo a pat-down if you are not screened by the walk-through metal detector. If the metal detector alarms, you and your service dog/animal will undergo additional screening, including a pat-down.
For screening questions pertaining to a unique or specific situation, you can contact the TSA directly at TSA.gov/contact.
