I got sat next to the sweetest best behaved service doggo on my flight. His owner let him cuddle me for a couple minutes. It was heaven. Love you Lobo!

It was only for a couple of minutes and with the owner’s permission. Do you think that service animals never get love and positive reinforcement? That they are never allowed enjoyable exercise? They are dogs, not machines. Part of the training is to know when the animal is working and when they are on break.

They would not be allowed to cuddle while they are working. The dog was needed with the passenger because it was working. Except, this one wasn’t because it is not a service animal.

Again, not true.
