semi-related (and I may have mentioned it already): I saw an assistance dog steal someone's sandwich on the train about a week ago. -- nm - mafic Jul 1, 08:16 2
- hee! they're supposed to be trained not to do that. was it a young one in training? -- nm - loosilu Jul 1, 08:17 1
  - totally not. full grown, with an obviously blind woman. just opportunistic. her attention was elsewhere, and the sub was sticking out the top of a - mafic Jul 1, 08:19

I don't like dogs on the subway. -- nm - loosilu Jul 1, 07:49 15
- They don't belong on the subway, I agree. - Krusty Jul 1, 08:12 1
  - agreed, and another exception for working dogs. -- nm - loosilu Jul 1, 08:13
- how come? - decline Jul 1, 07:51 12
  - ha. No, don't like any animals on the subway. not fair to them, plus some people have allergies - loosilu Jul 1, 07:52 11
    - I agree but for some owners thats their only way to get around. -- nm - lileve Jul 1, 08:00 10
      - But only people with cats and small dogs can use the subway. Anyone with a larger animal needs to find another way and I think so should the people - Krusty Jul 1, 08:13 9
        
        I can't even fathom owning a dog big enough to not fit in a carrier in NYC. -- nm - znufrii Jul 1, 08:18 3
        
        IIRC, it's only very small dogs. Dogs like a Labrador in a carrier aren't allowed, those owners need to take a cab or a pet transportation service. -- nm - Krusty Jul 1, 08:20
        
        it's like you don't live in Brooklyn! - loosilu Jul 1, 08:18 1
        
        believe me, I know. - znufrii Jul 1, 08:29
        
        Fair enough. -- nm - lileve Jul 1, 08:17
        
        exactly, that's part of the responsibility you take as a pet owner. -- nm - loosilu Jul 1, 08:13 3
        
        I didn't know dogs weren't allowed until I tried to take a dog on the train and was stopped by the token booth clerk. - Krusty Jul 1, 08:22 2
        
        your dog might be great, but I wouldn't want to be locked in a car with a violent dog. - loosilu Jul 1, 08:23 1
        
        Good point and it made sense once I thought about it but I wasn't thinking when I went to get the dog. - Krusty Jul 1, 08:26
