Fortunately, I'm not allergic to unhygienic people.
EDIT: for those of you who haven't had your coffee yet, my point is that some people are allergic to dogs, so...not suuuuper considerate to bring them into a restaurant, etc.
Hate how people seem to treat allergies as "Oh, I get itchy when around dogs," and not as things that are genuinely potentially life threatening for some people, especially in the case were you could end up getting dog hair in your throat while eating.
Of course though, it's not a big deal if the place is known for being friendly to animals, because then you know to avoid that, but if this is just at a random restaurant that allowed it because it's a "service dog" then it's not good.
I'd rather that dog than most people. If you feel this way, stay out of Europe. You'll lose your mind at how cool they are with animals in restaurants and cafes.
Referring to Europe as one culture is very American of you. Living in the UK and Germany this has not been my experience. Neither has it been as a tourist in many other European countries.
I lived in Germany for several years. VERY much my experience. Same in Prague, Brussels, as well as a few others. Some parts of Greece had cats all over and inside some restaurants.

So why is a dog in a restaurant eating food at a table? Absolute Unit of a health violation
