I occasionally have to visit offices where a single dog is brought in - they always smell strongly of dog, and often the dog will come and "greet" me. I'm not particularly keen on either of these aspects and as such it really puts me off visiting. I would certainly put that high on the list when considering taking a job in such an environment.

I had other reasons to quit the job where they started bringing their dog in, but wouldn't have needed any.

The idea of having these huge animals that can't communicate what they want and try to assess relative position in their idea of a social hierarchy with me by getting aggressive just makes me ill, so adding another species that unlike those higher primates has nothing to contribute to my projects, can't communicate at all or solve their own nutrition or excretion, and use physical instead of verbal aggression for social survey is way out.
