So one thing that's coming into focus for me today is that a lot of people really don't like dogs for whatever reason, they mostly keep a lid on it or lie about the reason for avoiding dogs because of our pet-loving culture, but when it's a service dog they feel free to let loose

And I've often brought up the thought experiment of what if some animal people your culture thought was disgusting - snakes or tarantulas or banana slugs - was extremely beloved in the country you lived in and people carried them around everywhere

But this is all irrelevant because SERVICE DOGS ARE NOT PETS Like shit you're allowed to be disgusted by whatever you want but if you find my goddamn EYES disgusting and demand I leave them home or keep them closed up in my eyelids around you so I CAN'T SEE you can fuck off

Or, in CS' case, the dog being their hands (picking stuff up etc because of pain and mobility issues) "Why don't you leave your hands at home Hands have a lot of germs on them, people find them unsanitary, you can get by without hands"

"Look, you and your hands have just been sitting there this whole time without actually using them for anything, clearly you don't NEED hands"

Never hear this about cats. I think it is acceptable to not like cats. Aren't we really talking about dog people here?
