No excuse! You would hurt an animal that had zero choice rather than the man forcing the situation on the dog and everyone else? While I cannot imagine someone hurting an animal except to protect themselves (and while disgusting, pee and poop are rarely deadly), the point is that it’s not the animals fault. It may be Royal’s fault, it may be the owner’s fault, but it most surely is not the dog’s fault for doing what what an animal does. I completely agree that this dog very likely does not fit the legal definition of a service dog and I refuse to sign any paperwork for my patient’s asking for it - but the humans here are 100% at fault and it would be cruel to take it out on the dog that has 0% fault. And to quote @03063dad and @jennyb1977 - “just wow” 🤯 Edited March 25, 2019 by 2Beeze 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the same guy? The dog was smallish, maybe 8-10 pounds and a short hair, by the time I realized what I was looking at we had passed them. I do think it is inappropriate, but dog pee is hardly a major calamity. However, the dog clearly should not be on board. jc It wasn't a stoller..it is a little wagon. He pulls the dog along, not push it. But yes, the dog is very small. I would say it is in the 8-10 pound range. The man is a crumudgeon - very grumpy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakelorain Posted March 26, 2019 #155 Share Posted March 26, 2019 There are many wearable blood pressure/heart monitors with alarms that this man could wear. No need for a dog that can't do much more that a monitor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been on the ship since at least January he was speaking with one of the crew when we saw him with his little doggie. I know the crew knows, but sometimes managers don't let everything get to the top dog. I can't imagine that the Captain would allow this to happen on his ship, but maybe that's how he also lives? 13 hours ago, John&LaLa said: Doesn't a Celebrity captain travel with a cat?

Mikew0805 Posted March 26, 2019 #157 Share Posted March 26, 2019 4 hours ago, lovescats5 said: We have never just kicked a dog but what would you do? I agree that it is not the dog's fault but until something happens to the dog the owner could care less. Maybe the owner needs to get a dog diaper like horses use that walk the streets in New York. Maybe someone needs to pee on the owner. I have instructed my granddaughter that if the dog is on our cruise and decides to pee on her she should kick it away. Why would anyone just stand there and not do anything as a dog pees on them. Maybe if something happened the owner would be a little more responsible. No one would just stand there. They would use their feet and move away. You should tell your granddaughter the same if she is incapable of making this basic decision vs. kicking an innocent dog. THAT is how people (deservedly) get bitten. A dog is not going to chase you so it can pee on you. 🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are fortunate to be able to control you BP with medication. But there are cardiac alert service dogs that monitor rises and drops in BP for people with certain heart conditions. He may have a legitimate need for the dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over time, when this "gentleman" was asked by other passengers what his dog did, his answer varied. I guess he finally settled on the "blood pressure" explanation. I was told by someone on the Anthem that he now has a sign on his wheeled carrier that says, "Don't ask me about the dog". 😮 In regards to a service animal, why do people think it’s okay to ask about someone’s personal medical condition. I too would get tired of being questioned. I also would be evasive with my response or bluntly tell them it’s none of their business, depending on my mood. Yes, he does have a sign telling people to stop asking him where the dog goes to relieve itself, that Tommy is a service dog and please don’t touch him. He may have a legitimate need, but he also needs to ensure that Tommy is properly trained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact his dog is making a mess on other people and all around the ship the dog is more like to cause HBP for him and other people who are annoyed with his and his dogs deeds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However inefficient they are in that category they make up for it by being house broken. None of them have ever pissed on my leg and told me that it was raining.
