My work allows dogs. I’d say there’s probably about 8-10 dogs that are regulars, most of which don’t come in every single day, but a few do. We’re hybrid, so at most they’re in office 3 days a week. There is a whole section in our handbook regulating bringing dogs in, so it’s not a free for all by any means. And people use common sense, I’ve yet to see someone trying to make it work with an ill behaved dog. I might hear a woof or bark on somebody’s way in maybe once a month.
It’s great! I love getting to see dogs at work! The policies we have are pretty explicit about keeping your dog in your office and supervised at all times (except for going in/out, or bringing them to meetings presuming that whoever you’re meeting with is comfortable with it.)
Idk if I have any allergic coworkers, but it’s not like I’m bumping into pups in the hall non stop, and they’re pretty good about accommodating various needs. I can’t imagine they would refuse someone asking for a different office if they wanted to move because the next guy over brings his dog often. The whole setup is far less dramatic than people might assume. It’s still a place of business, not a dog park.
