I have travelled safely next to a quiet, well behaved genuine service dog. But a furry, active dander spreader is another story....

The asthma attacks are scary for me, but the sneezing and runny eyes makes people sitting next to me quite concerned, especially during flu season and I always try and reassure people it is not a cold but allergies. Ventolin/steroids is truly a life saver!
People think I make this up but genuine service dogs apparently do not impact me and I do not understand why. I suspect it is something to do with the shampoos or lack thereof, and service animals are very clean with apparently very little dander.
