Twitter Thread Reminds Us Why We Should Respect Those Who Have Service Dogs

A blind woman took to Twitter to share a story about a man who asked to pet her service dog. When she said “no,” he refused to leave.

You can imagine why this terrified her for multiple reasons. It’s as simple as respecting people and their boundaries. Service animals are there for the owners and not for you to pet. This thread serves as a great reminder of that.
