Service Dog Showdown: Will Allergies or Seizures Win?
Well, well, well… looks like we’ve got ourselves a real pickle here! Our homeowner is stuck between a rock and a hard place. On one hand, she’s got a roomie who needs a service dog to help with her seizures and anxiety. On the other hand, our gal is severely allergic to dogs and can barely breathe around them! She’s threatened to kick her roomie out if she gets the dog, but J can’t afford to move and says it’s a matter of life and death. Even the family is getting involved, calling our protagonist an a-hole for not being more understanding! So, what do you think? Should she suck it up and deal with the allergies, or stand her ground and risk losing her roommate? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this doggone dilemma!
