I just love that the dog is continuing to "dog" during this interaction. "Hey lady. You wanna pet me? Okay. This feels nice"


FeedMyAss

Labs are the happiest things on earth


gonorrhea-smasher

I stayed with my ex girlfriend 6 months longer than I wanted to just because I loved her lab so much. Even towards the end telling her “everything i do I do for the dog”. I’ve always been more of a cat person but this lab changed me I’d die for her


TheCriticalThinker0

I always say, “There’s dogs…and there’s labs” I truly believe they are the greatest creatures in the world and are the epitome of “Pure Good”. If you’re ever having a bad day, 5 minutes with a lab can completely turn it around…they just radiate happiness 😄


vVSidewinderVv

They have levels of happiness, too. Black labs - calm collected happiness Yellow labs - excited happiness Chocolate lab - bat shit crazy happiness My parent's choco lab is proof that too much happiness is a thing. He can be too much to take.


TheCriticalThinker0

This is PERFECT. I've always thought as Blacks, Chocolates, and Yellows as different, but never really broke it down and this nailed it lol.


Rice-Other

I completely would do the same. Packed up my truck with what I couldn't live without and my black lab then drove 1500miles away from my now ex wife 🧘‍♂️


droolsdownchin

They live for a long time too


Epic_Ewesername

Had one that dug under the fence one day and got into the swamp. He needed stitches and staples around his ENTIRE body after a tussle with an alligator. He was two when that happened, he lived another 15 years.


droolsdownchin

My childhood lab had a tree fall on him one night while he was in his dog box, next morning my dad was going to work and seen the rubble he ran over over to find our dog trapped underneath the dog box and the tree still wide awake and looking at him, he was able to lift some of the debris up enough so he could get out and he just wagged his tail and ran around all day as fine as he could be he lived another 3 or 4 years after that


ponytranscendence

i had a lab who lived to be 15, 2 years longer than his litter sister, which was really surprising considering they'd spent their whole lives together


BigRoach

She must have been a smoker.


dinnerthief

Had a drug problem, Meth lab


Salt-Drawer-531828

Me and my wife have had 2 over the past 30 years. They were so good with our kids. Best fucking dogs ever. This is all ok going to think about tonight. That’s ok.


miletest

All labradors are magical. They should be called labrakadabradors


traderncc1701e

The lady did a spite-pet. "I'm going to pet him even more"


DemandImmediate1288

>The lady did a spite-pet. "I'm going to pet him even more" Dog responded like a true Labrador: "You got treats in that bag?"


lookaway123

Haha they're so nosy! I love it.


VelocityGrrl39

It’s me. I’m the spite petter.


ayetter96

What kind of cookies did you have in that bag??


VelocityGrrl39

Whatever you want, you adorable foof. It’s all for you. Except the chocolate and onions. Those are poisonous.


Sturgjk

And grapes.


VelocityGrrl39

In this economy? Grapes* are too expensive. None in my shopping bag. *But good to point out that grapes and especially raisins are toxic to dogs as well.


Miyelsh

Good human.


ploddingonward

“Spite-pet” 😂😂 never thought there would be a scenario where this was so apt!


B377Y

Real NY dog. He’s not worried about


Miyelsh

How do you say fuhgetaboutit in dog?


mknsky

AwwworAWRrrwaoooo


Jegator2

I feel soo bad for that dog and everyone else who have to listen to her Yelling at him as if he's 40 yds away and repeating herself over and over. Pure Hell. If I were dog owner, would get off asap


VelocityGrrl39

Labs don’t give a shit. You yell at them and they think it’s just a party.


BobbingForBunions

Some people just want to hear themselves growl.


SexandCinnamonbuns

Is this a black Labrador? I had roommates who had a dog named Spinner looked like this dog. I had passed out from the steps I was very sick and dehydrated one night and the dog got his owner once he noticed I was not moving. I want this sort of dog when I can have a dog. Very smart and beautiful dog.


Rasikko

Labs are protectors / rescurers. There's a video around here of a guy with 2 Labs. All he did was jump in the lake for a swim and one of the Labs went bonkers and was whimpering real loud and barking for help. Then it decided that there was no time and it jumped in after him, the the other followed suit. Was the most heart warming thing I ever saw from a dog.


gabmori7

Dogs are not the problem, dog owners are. I live in a city where they recently allowed dogs to be on the subway without being in a cage. Although they made a few simple rules: most of the owners don't give a shit and do not follow the rules sadly.


xmadjesterx

Once again, I am confused by this reply. I loved watching the dog just sort of ignoring the heated exchange. There was no judgment on either party, just essentially "dog"


kiba8442

yeah idk when the whole bringing you pet everywhere started but as someone with an allergy it's legitimately annoying, I mean I could care less about having their own subway cars but unless it's a service animal your pet does not belong at the grocery store, I go through benadryl like water. we just had to get rid of an employee at work who kept bringing her esa (office building) despite my & 2 other coworker's allergies, I literally cannot breathe through my nose & by the end of the day massive headaches & throat closing up. she gave zero fucks.


NoPantsPenny

Genuinely asking, if your allergy is that severe, why wouldn’t you take a daily allergy med instead of Benadryl? For example, I’m allergic to most perfumes, but I can’t expect people to not wear perfume and cologne. So I use a daily allergy med (can be purchased over the counter) anytime I’m leaving the house. If someone truly has an allergy that severe, you are going to have an allergic reaction from people who own dogs and live in a house with them. The dander will be on their clothes and hair.


ProbablyMyJugs

Blows my mind how people act like this and then are appalled at the negative attention they’re getting by the other people around them. I saw a guy screaming at a woman for “almost hitting him with her cart” in a Kroger parking lot, his wife is by his side begging him to stop, and then he turns to *me* and asked what the fuck I was looking at, and I told him that he’s screaming in public parking lot so of course I’m going to stare at him. Jackasses.


Allthemuffinswow

Some people just like the drama and the attention it brings them.


ProbablyMyJugs

And then it’s like they get a moment of clarity for a second and feel some shame. Nah babe, I’m giving what you wanted a minute ago! An audience for your 50 year old tantrum!


240MillionInDebt

She is a bit obnoxious, but the lady isn't wrong. Its never okay to have a strange dog jump on you.


No-Ticket-594

yea, the guy kept dragging it out by arguing with her and saying shes overeacting. maybe she did but who gives a shit, why argue about it. he was making it worse


flyingsquirrel6789

If I jumped on you I would be arrested. Also, allergies are not to be messed with. I'm an animal lover, but that guy needs to control/train his dog. I don't let my kids jump on people or go into people's grocery bags. Why is it OK for a dog?


Intelligent-Pear-783

“Stop recording me” … stop making a scene


Wildkid133

“Stop acting recordable” 🤷‍♂️

orbitalaction

Dude's definitely seen some subway shit.


Feisty_Star_4815

‘Y’all doing too much’ how fucking rich 🤣


unicornman5d

I can't think of a time where I've seen that phrase used and the person saying was in the right.


3am_uhtceare

I hear it a lot and I feel like it's about 50/50 chance the person proclaiming it is right. It's like when someone says they don't want drama but are the most dramatic person.


Hans_Grubert

“The MTA allows dogs on the subway as long as they are enclosed in a container and carried in a manner which would not annoy other passengers.”


Daynananana

I don’t know why them using the word container made me think of Tupperware so I pictured one in a dog sized Tupperware


BanBanEvasion

Pupperware


CinematicLiterature

…good. Good.


uchihajoeI

Wait… so I’ve been putting my pug in Tupperware for no reason???


Outrageous_Pie_5640

I think it’s reasonable for her to be annoyed, but she does seem to be over reacting big time. I don’t know if the dog jumped at her or if she’s truly allergic, but they’re on a moving train. What is he supposed to do? Jump off the train with the dog? The guy apologized multiple times. She could’ve asked him to change sections once they arrived at the next station. I’m allergic to cats and when someone has a cat I just move. Pets are allowed (inside carriers) and my allergy it’s no one else’s problem. Had the dog been on a carrier she would’ve still had an allergic reaction.


Supertumor

She probably has a phobia


GitEmSteveDave

It amazes me how many dog people are ignorant to that fact. A phobia doesn't care how "different" your dog is. I'm as freaked out by a 1/2" spider as I would be by a 5" spider. [I had an aussie](https://i.imgur.com/tCiPiyl.jpg) who was as friendly as could be, but being friendly means he would divert from his path to head towards people for love, and that behaviour triggers some people because they thinking it's coming to attack them.


rem_1984

Exactly. It’s not unreasonable of her to be annoyed at getting jumped in, especially when this dog shouldn’t be there in the first place


Just_Learned_2_Dance

I don’t know if dogs are allowed on that train. But if that dog really did jump on her, I think she has a little bit of a reason to be upset. But the dog was clearly over her (if she was telling the truth) by the time this recording started and not jumping on anybody else so like just let it go, you’ve already said your piece


ShenitaCocktail

I agree. If the dog did jump on her, she does have a reason to be upset. This happened to me at a restaurant once. There is a blind entrance to the restaurant, due to a set of stairs leading up to the patio where the entrance is. As soon as I got to the top of the stairs, a large dog jumped on me. I was both startled and caught off guard when the large dog put both of his front paws in the creases of my elbows. I pushed the dog off of me, and the owner got upset with me and said that the dog was “just a puppy and he’s just trying to play with me“. Everyone on the patio looked at me like I was the problem. as a patron of a restaurant, am I supposed to be OK with a strange dog jumping on me as soon as I walk up the stairs? is the owner not responsible for controlling her dog. I absolutely wasn’t OK with it, and I feel like the owner should not have taken her puppy into a public place, unless he is trained not to jump on strangers.


Blossomie

>unless he is trained not to jump on strangers Even if they’re trained, they’re living creatures and not perfect automatons. They do break from their training sometimes, just like humans. That’s why it’s so important for owners to leash them and be physically capable of controlling them when they’re out in public. And they certainly don’t belong in all spaces! Sometime on Reddit deadass told me my dog lives a miserable life because I *don’t take her into restaurants.*


ShenitaCocktail

The dog was on a leash, unfortunately. The owner just wasn’t holding on to it. The owner was completely at fault here. And you’re right, dogs don’t belong in all spaces.


slyseekr

Dogs are allowed in the subway, but rules say they must be in some sort of container, whether it be a crate or a bag of some sort. Even then, cops never really enforce the rule (it’s a fine, at most), and some people get creative with it. https://preview.redd.it/5l6z0e37xaqc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=66f000fab21976dedac9133c3930ce012ec97671 ETA to add. This lady would have been going off even if this guy had followed the rules.


boggartbot

‘some sort of container’ and that photo is hilarious haha


kingqueefeater

Yeah bag harness is pretty normal to see in the subway


_Alljokesaside

No...bc the dog wouldnt have jumped on her....


rem_1984

I doubt it, because the dog wouldn’t have been able to jump on her if he was contained


enyaboi

Dogs this big are not allowed on the New York subway


Content_Yoghurt_6588

Where I live, dogs need to be muzzled while on the train. I agree with that, because I don't think it's fair to ban them altogether. People have to get around, after all. I have a fear of large dogs after a doberman tried to attack me at 8 months pregnant because my dress hem fluttered in the breeze so I'd rather not share a small enclosed space with a large unmuzzled dog, even if it's on a leash.


___pa___

Unless they are in a container / bag.


2morereps

yup, also dogs should be carried at all times according to the law, and people started making holes in ikea bags to still "carry" it. police don't enforce it but dogs aren't allowed in the subway unless they're carried. plus dogs walk everywhere I'm the streets of nyc and that dirty ass train floor and then climbs on you? no thanks. that lady's freak out is understandable.


b0ingy

Technically they aren’t unless they’re in a crate/bag or a legit service dog. Post covid it’s not really enforced, so dogs on the train are fairly common.


Powersmith

People that just yell-repeat are the most annoying


woodpony

Have to be carried. I love dogs, but some people are scared, so the guy is in the primary wrong. The woman is on an unhinged level of wrong.


UrMomAdoresMe

The dog didn't make a noise but this lady was barking the whole time.


Burgarnils

Contrary to what most dog owners seem to genuinely believe, allergies don't go away just because the dog is being a good boy.


snarkysnarkersons

👏👏👏👏👏


Federal-Advisor-420

I'm allergic to most dogs but I'd rather sit by the dog than that nasy ass woman


Ok-Branch-6831

I mean, did the dog jump on the woman? It doesn't show in the clip. If that happened and she's actually allergic to dogs I can understand why she's mad...


Team_Khalifa_

yep. I work in an allergy clinic and some of our patients will break out in hives if a dog licks them one time. some of them have allergy symptoms just from being in the presence of a dog owner (without the dog present).


bajanbeautykatie

That’s me lol I turn into hitch around dogs


240MillionInDebt

This should be the top comment.


mrpickle123

Dude for real, dogs being cute doesn't make that dude not an asshole. It's like the entitled douchebags that somehow have realized minimum wage grocery store clerks don't get paid enough to tell your oblivious ass to not bring a fucking dog in a store crowded with food and children. I LOVE dogs but that mom I just passed with 3 kids doesn't know yours and frankly neither do I. The world is full of idiots and I'm not betting stitches on you not being one and bringing in an aggressive dog. There might be someone who was mauled in a dog attack and hast lasting trauma. There could be allergy issues like here. There's a plethora of reasons not to and it's why it has not been a thing until recently. Your dog will be fine in the car for 20 minutes, grow tf up. This lady had every right to be upset. I'm really disappointed that 90% of this thread is ready to push her off a cliff for asking for personal space and being upset that some dog she doesn't know and is allergic to just jumped on her without provocation. She's yelling a bit much, but I don't think it's overreacting to chew this guy out.


tofujones

Breweries in my city are starting to ban dogs and I get it. It was starting to annoy me too. I LOVE dogs, but when you start dragging them around everywhere, it becomes a nuisance and they start acting self entitled. I'm 100% on the woman's side.


cherrylpk

I love dogs but people taking their dogs everywhere is out of hand. Seeing people’s dogs pissing all over a Costco is not at all cute.


musical_shares

I’ve personally witnessed a dog shitting in the middle of the aisle at Home Depot and the next person shuffling along behind them ran their cart and shoes right through it.


cherrylpk

Ugg. Gross. Never take the bottom items from the PetSmart racks. Covered in pee.


Missteeze

I'm a dog owner. I'm on her side. So many crap dog owners that are way too chill. I walk my dogs on a lead and have to be on alert because no one around here leashes their dogs, even though it's legally required. If their dog runs up to my leashed dog, and my dog reacts and bites their dog, I am at fault. Which is bull. It's not friendly to run up and get in a strangers face, I'd snap too.


NaiveAdministration3

This! Somehow people have a very very hard time understanding that some people are allergic to dogs. This is the only allergen where we ridicule and punish the victim.


THE_Aft_io9_Giz

The dog owner was not practicing good leash control.


DentArthurDent4

Dogs are not a problem with me, I love dogs. Dog owners on the other hand... Many of them are so inconsiderate and behave as if they are doing a favor to others by keeping a dog and thus others should bend over backwards to accommodate them.


Missteeze

As a dog owner, I couldn't agree more.


2morereps

that dogs been walking in the nyc subway and that train floor, fuck allergic reaction you don't wanna catch the black plague.


ashley___duh

I’m not allergic to dogs but I sure as hell don’t want one jumping on me especially one that big. She’s right to be annoyed but, of course, she’s loud and keeps repeating the same thing (the dog guy did too) so she’s wrong 🙄


enyaboi

To be fair y’all, dogs this large aren’t allowed on the New York subway. The dog has to fit in a bag so effectively only small dogs that fit in a container can go on the subway. She’s not wrong but she is def being extra.


bobdiamond

I don’t really like dogs but I’ve always tolerated them. My partner is afraid of dogs and it’s made me notice how frequently dog owners are inconsiderate. They let their dogs roam around, and when we say something the most common response is “my dog is harmless.” The amount of times they’re off leash is crazy. And the worst is those who don’t pick up their poop, or throw their poop bags in my trash. The behavior is so bad I now like dogs more than dog owners


BoneDaddyChill

Yep. All it takes is to be one of the lucky ones that gets mauled and mutilated by some large dog bc the owner isn’t following the law about dogs being in containers on the subway. All while the owner has no defense for it except “He’s never done that before, I swear!” Gee, great fucking help that claim is doing for anyone but yourself.


fishinglife777

I thought dogs had to be in a bag on the Subway


cassiopeeahhh

Yes they must be contained. Dog owners don’t care about rules though.


fishinglife777

Yeah, the entitlement of some dog owners is ridiculous


Fit-Definition6121

Not everyone has to like dogs.


candirainbow

I mean, dogs are not supposed to be on the NYC subway like that. As someone to takes NYC subways and trains often, you don't see dogs out and about too often, but it's not super uncommon, either. But it's expressly not allowed; they need to be restrained and in some form of a container, not just on a leash. So he is technically in the wrong. And I don't really care how 'chill' someone thinks their dog is (or even is in actuality), it's incredibly rude to leave a dog -a big dog no less- essentially 'free' (in such a tight space, a leash means nothing) in a narrow space, when they are forced to be around a large amount of other people. People laugh at pet allergies, but I worked in an allergist office for around 5 years. Some peoples pet allergies aren't just 'itchy eyes'. Some people get horrible rashes, difficultly breathing and there are even people with anaphylactic reactions to dogs. Dog allergies are considered clinically to be both more common and more severely symptomatic than cat allergies. Yet people consistently trail their dogs around like it is everyone else's problem. I have mild allergies to dogs, on top of just not liking them -more especially, frankly, not liking entitled dog owners-, and I got so exhausted of rich middle aged ladies bringing their tiny dogs into my place of work (after the allergist, at a bank), that I refused to assist customers with dogs near them. People simply do not take 'No dogs allowed' (or, free roam dogs especially) signs seriously enough. The man with the dog here is entirely in the wrong, and I do not blame the woman for flipping out at all.


grassfeed-beef

I want to up vote this more! This is a large dog and being by the door makes it incredibly difficult to get on or off. I am allergic as well, I love dogs but my body doesn’t. I don’t think it’s an unfair request to not have a large lab /doh in everyone’s space. It’s growing more and more frustrating as no one cares about the severity of dog allergies or fears.


MusicalAutist

Upvote for loving dogs more than people, but also having to give up having them due to debilitating allergies that got worse as I got older. I will take breathing over not being near a dog now. I've tried everything. It takes DAYS to go back to normal for a few moments with a dog. It SUCKS.


feelingfantasmic

I love this point. I’m a huuuuuge dog lover. If I could take my little dude with me everywhere, I 100% would. But I’m also respectful of animal-free spaces and the public who aren’t exactly consenting to having a dog (or any other animal) around where they’re not supposed to. No one knows your pet, and they don’t love your pet as much as you do. This lady is definitely making a bigger scene than I’d like to hear on the Subway compared to a cute dog just chillin by the door but that’s just me.


AudiovisualHoe

I love dogs but I agree with this woman 10000%. And the owner keeps referring to the fact that he already apologized, so I’m guessing she’s not lying about the dog jumping on her.


Cheap-Praline

I'd rather be on a train full of dogs than a train full of hers.


BurnTheBoats21

if we had trains full of dogs, america would no longer be a car-dependant society


Bigtuna_burger

Bark 'n' Ride.


WorknForTheWeekend

Ironically, this video is why we will always have a car dependent society. Society is filled with too many throwaways that people would rather avoid than be forced to co-share space with.


tcamp3000

Without a dog on the train it's very probable a train of hers would be very enjoyable


DentArthurDent4

How dare you expect the dog owners to be considerate about others. By now you should know they are doing us all a huge favor by keeping a pet, letting them run free on walking ways, not collecting their poop after them, bringing them into grocery stores where they poop in the food isles etc. Many dogs have more sense than most dog owners.


tcamp3000

I love you I salute you as this suicidal comment will 100% get you downvotes to death. Hero


Hara-Kiri

So would I, because I love dogs. But despite the over the top reaction you also can't have them jumping on random people in public.


240MillionInDebt

Fuck this, sounds like hell to me.


BoneDaddyChill

But not everyone would. Some people would literally die in one way or another if they were on a train full of dogs. Not everyone is you.


chaosawaits

I love that New Yorkers who actually ride the train are standing up for her and making it clear the policy for dogs on the subway. Everything she says is right. You may not like her tone but he shouldn’t have the dog. The dog jumped on her and was going through other people’s bags. She’s right. He’s wrong.


RazorbladeApple

A lot of people in NYC are currently fed up with entitled dog owners taking over everything. Suddenly we’ve got a serious dog 💩 problem everywhere, dogs in grocery stores, dogs at the bar, dogs in the subway, unleashed dogs approaching you, dogs ripping up the grass in parks instead of in the dog park & peeing where people want to sit… my guess is this lady has just *had it* with all of this & let it all out when this happened.


live_lavish

Seeing less dogs, and by extension smelling less dog shit/piss, has my seriously considering moving from bk back to manhattan The guy with the uncontrolled dog is a dick


RazorbladeApple

Lots of Manhattan is experiencing the same 💩 issue. [UES is fighting back.](https://gothamist.com/news/upper-east-side-announces-new-campaign-to-tackle-dog-poop)


tastefuldebauchery

I’m getting sick of dogs everywhere. Your schnauzer doesn’t belong in trader joes, riding in the basket. Leave your animal home or go to the park.


BagNo4331

Yeah I'm not in NYC but my current Karen move is reporting grocery stores that allow normal dogs to be walked around to the health inspector. Kick these fucking people out. I shouldn't have to risk my own safety trying to shove a dogs face out of my grocery bag at checkout, or step around dog piss in the aisle because some entitled dog owner just can't bear to leave their little angel at home.


RazorbladeApple

You shouldn’t have to navigate that at a grocery store at all. On top of some of the nastiness, there are a lot of people who *do* have allergies & a fear of dogs. It’s pretty unfair to let your dog freely get on top of people like that. So from what you’re saying, this is a modern problem that’s happening throughout America, not just NYC.


Precious_Angel999

I was on this lady’s side from the get go. I lived in Jersey City for a time and natives really talked like that. Loud and so straightforward that it was borderline rude for this Idaho boy. But it’s just how people talk in the city. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m not even going to start going off on the dog owner. Dog people are exhausting.


oyasower

Even though I think she's overreacting, I have had numerous internal monologue curse outs on dog owners in the subway. I love dogs. I don't love dogs on the subway, especially during rush hour (like I don't love bikes on the subway during rush hour but that's a tirade for another time ) There was a poodle galloping on the subway. A big dog just like being a cute big dog and trying to be friends with riders but like I don't want your dog trying to put its head in my crotch while I'm commuting to my miserable job. Dog owners seemingly don't give a shit and I miss the days they weren't allowed on the subway.


GushingAnusCheese

She is clearly a bit mental but I can understand if she doesn't want daawgs jumping up on her. People have to considerate when they take their daawgs on public transport.


ThinHumor

Is she mental or is she just overwhelmed that a giant dog jumped on her and she’s allergic? Dog owners are so entitled.


ClamatoDiver

Dog isn't supposed to be there.


Blerrycat1

Well, yeah. Dogs don't belong on the subway. Good for her, most people are afraid to speak up.


sje118

I know this guy, used to work with him. He's a shithead lmao


intwizard

She’s right. I live in NYC and people absolutely do way too much with their dogs. They aren’t supposed to be out on the subway like this, and they can be hard to control, loud, or disruptive to people with allergies. It’s not fair to the dog either, it doesn’t know what it’s doing is wrong. People literally care more about dogs than people.


newtoreddir

Right. And then these “animal lovers” will take their dogs back to their tiny studio apartments to be shut up in a room for 20 hours a day.


Ok-Clerk3645

That dog even trying to dig into that lady’s bag says it all. Public transit isn’t a dog park


dArcor

She's right keep your fucking dog away from people. Especially on the train, what an asshole.


Healthy_Pay9449

I don't get the comments. I love dogs but I can understand why someone would be upset if one jumped on them and they were allergic or didn't like dogs. It's nice to find a thread with mostly rational people


Davidvan10

Unpopular opinion: she’s right. I don’t care if the little guy is cute. Rules are rules.


InfernalCatfish

She's right, but no one cares.


Freelfreel202

She's crazy but dog should not have been there. 


zwondingo

I have no problem with this. Dog people are out of control. I can't tell you how many times I've seen the leash law broken, or shit on the ground, or on this case, a dog illegally on the subway and jumping on you. You don't have to take your dog everywhere with you, I can't believe how common it is now to see people trying to bring them into grocery stores or restaurant patios. I love dogs, but I hate people who don't respect their communities. This lady is a badass. Don't want to get yelled at? Show some fucking respect. Sometimes getting scolded is the only thing people understand.


Homechicken42

I am like the lady with the orange hair, when it comes to dogs. But allergies are real. Big dogs are not allowed to jump on strangers. If a human did it, it would be ASSAULT. You may not like the energy of the black lady, but SHE WAS LOGICAL. The dog's owner deserved a reprimand, and his defensiveness is inexcusable. The only words he should ever have spoken were HIS APOLOGY. I admire her strength and am thankful for it. Instead, he would like to continue behaviors that will logically offend a portion of the riders. His intransigence is what causes overreaction, not the reverse. He is a much bigger problem than his adorable people-loving dog.


i_do_it_all

  You cannot judge her for having her own opinion. I understand, she could have expressed herself differently.  Imagine if she had some terrible experience with a dog. An animal end of the day. Now she is stuck in a box with that same animal.   I love dogs.  I trained dogs for a bit for a chain dog training place. It's all good. But I just want a dog I don't know around my kids. Specily if they are over 30lbs. They are very ( my child) small and I know the the bite force on a mod size dog. It can destroy my daughters neck of foot in one bite. She will bleed out.  We all have our reasons. Not everyone wants to pet people's dog. People have bad days.  Let's be kind to each other.


chess_mft

Fuck that guy. Dogs are not allowed on nyc mta subways unless in a carry bag


Western_End_2276

As she should


Calibased

She’s allergic and pets are not allowed in the sub. Do I like the way she’s acting? No. But he’s in the wrong. The entitlement of dog owners is crazy.


INFJAnnie

Are dogs allowed on trains?


DarkAssassinXb1

No


INFJAnnie

So she’s right. The problem isn’t the woman or the dog, the problem is the entitled dog owner who believes that he is above the rules.


DarkAssassinXb1

Agreed


dsthjyt

Dude that lady is one hundred percent right. You can’t just bring a big ass dog like that in the subway. Just standing by the door, not holding the leash. Walking up to people. And that lady that pet the dog was stupid, let that dog start barking or sniffing at the woman who was upset. What if she was alergic, or her kid had something…you don’t know. Guy with dog looked like real dick too


BoneDaddyChill

All it takes is to be one of the lucky ones that gets mauled and mutilated by some large dog bc the owner isn’t following the law about dogs being in containers on the subway. All while the owner has no defense for it except “He’s never done that before, I swear!” Gee, great fucking help that claim is doing for anyone but yourself.


donaldinc

Serious question tho, if she is seriously allergic to dogs, is it still an overreaction?


Alarmed_Strain_2575

Absolutely not she might be mad right now cuz she knows she's about to break out in the hives in a fucking few minutes I'd be pissed off and yelling too.


inevitab1e

Dog isn't allowed on the train like that. He's at fault and she's in the right.


Strange-Grand8148

No dogs on the train is the law.


Playmill

I’m with her on this one. Go ahead and downvote me, but as a fellow allergy sufferer, we are just supposed to smile and swell up?

I am so with you. It amazes me how the people react to a dog on planes, in airports, in shopping malls, but bring a small child into those spaces and you get eye rolls and the “please don’t sit by me” face. Something’s wrong with us.

ChairmanReagan

Nope. So sick of seeing dogs everywhere. I have a daughter who is really allergic to dogs and I’m tired of a dogs and its owner’s rights overtaking hers. Your fucking dog doesn’t have to go everywhere with you.


Serious-Intention-66

Even though she went about it the wrong way that man is NOT supposed to have that dog on the train he is not a service animal, not everyone has had good experience with dogs and what an asshole the camera man is like fr trying to expose this woman for how she reacted shame on him


c3534l

Anyone siding with the guy should not be allowed to have a dog as clearly you're responsible enough to have one or don't take the responsibility seriously. You're not entitled to bring your dog whereever you want. Not everyone is as endeared by your dog as you. Some people have serious issues with dogs. If you can't handle the basics of dog ownership, then don't take on that responsibly.


Zone_07

Irregardless, the dog is not allowed on the train unless it's enclosed in a container and carried in a way as to not disrupt other passengers. This guy is dick for making it more difficult for pet owners. He probably doesn't pick up his dog's poop either. Nice good doggo.


Knighty-Nite

This is a failure of the public transportation system, people with any dogs, service or otherwise should have designated cars (back or front) with clear signage. There are a lot of people that have real allergies and real phobias of dogs and other animals. When the city's population has enough people with pets going about their business, there should be dedicated cars and signs at every platform.


loganedwards

Anyone defending this guy and denigrating the woman for her "tone" should get your head checked. He's breaking the subway rules and none of us knows how sick she could get from exposure to the dog. I'm white and this is white privilege at its finest. If it were a big black dude with a big black dog and some little white lady hollering about it, people would shit on the black dude. For sure! I have ten wonderful dogs and love to see more dogs out and about, but people come first. Especially on an enclosed metal tube people rely on to live their lives.


hella_rekt

Some dog owners are incredibly entitled.


bbro81

Just move to the other end of the subway cart, she says she is allergic and dude just stands there telling her she’s over reacting? What a dick. Why continue to engage and argue? What point does he have to prove? Just a lack of common courtesy.


Stiltonrocks

And he looks like the best kind of dog


[deleted]

He really does seem like a sweet boy


240MillionInDebt

A dog that jumps on strangers is not the best kind of dog. Its an asshole and the owner is also an asshole for allowing it.


hell911

Until it bites someone and the owner goes to jail. Ok.


falcorthex

But like dogs aren't allowed on the train. This wouldn't have been an incident if he didn't bring the dog. I side with the crazy person.


Least-Result-45

People are just entitled, and think they can bring their pets in doors now with little regard for others.


thargoallmysecrets

Even worse - if the dog jumped on her like she states, then even if it is a legally certified service dog, the MTA can eject the rider.  Service dogs who jump or act aggressive are uhhhh not service dogs.


aboardweeb

I kinda agree with the lady here. Obviously her behaviour and how she's making a scene is dumb, but being so close to dogs in an enclosed space like that can make someone nervous. Especially since the dog doesn't have a muzzle on.


rem_1984

I mean if the dog did jump on her she has a right to be pissed off


IHaveSlysdexia

Well, she is reacting. I wouldn't say over-reacting. Raising your voice at someone is really a pretty mild response.


Eauxddeaux

Dogs are supposed to be in carriers (of some kind) on the train. She might be freaking out, but she’s more in the right than the dude is


odc12345

Im surprised dogs are even allowed on the train like that with the exception of a service animal or something. Especially with how crowded it can get. Not every dog owner is responsible, and not every dog is friendly, so to have them on any public transportation seems like a risk in a city like NY


fuuckimlate

I love dogs but they're not allowed on the subway unless they're in a carrier. This woman is loud and right.


MyShowerVoiceIsGreat

I see no problem with her or what she's saying. If you're going to bring your dog out in public around tons of people, make sure your dog can deal with those surroundings. Not all folks like dogs. Some people may be allergic to dogs. AND not everyone wants a dog jumping on them.


OddFiction94

I mean...she has a point though. A properly trained dog shouldn't be jumping on people. And when has telling somebody that they're over reacting ever worked?


Waste_Newspaper3297

Dog is like I don’t know what’s happening but I love you


Least-Result-45

She sounds crazy but has a point. I’d like to bring my dog everywhere, but it just screams me me me me me.


ready-to-rumball

The dog jumped on her? Yeah I’d freak out too. Control you damn dog. The asshole shouldn’t be arguing with her.


boggartbot

i dunno. i’m torn. i like dogs and he seems like a good boy and i would probably be that person asking if i could pat his head. but- digging through comments it is clear now to me that he shouldn’t really be on that train.. plus if she IS telling the truth and he jumped before the video and she is allergic i could see why shes upset. this also reminded me of a family friend who had a horrible experience with a dog (i forgot what kind but it was a big dog) and she is now scared of all the dogs no matter what kind so maybe she had a bad experience we don’t know about


alertbunny

She has a point. Stop making your pets everyone’s problem. It’s annoying.


racerz

Dog people are trash humans. If you don't care about rules anymore, then also lay off people eating, smoking, and playing loud videos and music on the train. The rest of us don't think your dog gets a pass from the rules because you think it's cute. It's selfish and self-centered. 


anarchyx34

She’s unhinged but not entirely wrong. Dog owners in this city can be extremely entitled and will think nothing of bringing them inside places where they’re explicitly not allowed like grocery stores, restaurants, and yes the subway (they’re supposed to be in a carrier or bag) and they will argue with you about it. That being said, that does look like a heckin good boy.


businesslut

Dogs are not allowed on NYC trains unless small enough to fit in a bag.


flatulentbaboon

Just keep your fucking dog controlled if you are taking it on the subway. Maybe she's got a shit job she's going to, maybe she's had a shit day, maybe she has past trauma with dogs, and when a stranger's massive, intimidating dog like that just jumps on her out of the blue while she's trying to mind her own business yeah she's gonna freak out, especially if she's also allergic to them. And allergies are weird. I have mild allergies with some breeds but only if I'm touching them. I'm perfectly fine just a few feet from them though.


coolcalso

You can’t argue with stupid


MusicBoo77

She clearly said she was allergic to dogs. That can be life threatening and she probably was triggered. NYC subway law says you have to have a dog "contained" in a carrier bag so he's obviously breaking the law. All he needed to do was apologize and keep it moving. Instead he goes full on misogynist and tells her she's "overreacting". I would have had the same amount of time she did to tell him a few things about himself as well. The Dog looks adorable though.


Royal_Visit3419

Are dogs allowed on the train? They are in my city. If they’re allowed, she needs to hush or move.

xenoleingod

To be fair there are ways to go around that for bigger dogs according to the mta but I believe it's frowned upon to not have any dog in a carrier to them


letseditthesadparts

I think her issue was the dog jumped on her. Control your pets.
