Where I work, we are all allowed to bring in our dogs. It is awesome!!! I even brought my two in once.Lately, there have been some instances of agression (to be expected to a point) between the random dogs attending work each day.
Today was different though....
One of the girls has a Pit Bull. She has brought it in several times and it always seems wary, but has been warming up to everyone.
I walked into the office she is in (our files are in there, and I needed to find an order) and the dog started growling at meIMO it is one thing for the dogs to be growling and sorting things out with each other but growling at people. Yikes! I was scared. The breed has a reputation...and not a good one either.
Well, I went and told my boss, because I thought he should know. I let him know it made me totally uncomfortable. I think any of the dogs could be a potential liability but, it just happened to be the Pit Bull that was growling... and at me no less.
Everyone else here seemed to just blow it off as "oh, the dog is just in a bad mood" Did I just take it more seriously because the growling/agression was directed at me? Should I have just let it go? I felt like I had to say something because what if something happens later on and someone gets hurt--I would feel terrible for not saying anything
Honestly, I do not want to set foot in that office if the dog is in there. I do not trust it. What would you have done in my situation?![]()
