Why do some companies allow dogs? Some people are allergic to them, don't want to get licked by them, bitten, or want to step on dog poo. I've seen all that happen to other people in the company.
Don't get me wrong, I love animals and I have my own. But where do we draw the line between personal and professional? How do we tell John that his dog is OK, but Bob that his dog needs to stay home?
- shaftway 10y agoAt Google there's a one-strike policy. If your dog defecates indoors, bites someone, is overly friendly, or any number of things like that, you can (and generally are) asked to not bring them back. It's also considered common courtesy to ask people that you will be in close proximity to before you bring a dog in, in case of allergies. Cat-related allergies are much more common than dog ones. Generally dogs are also better trained than cats and behave more predictably.
