Do Not Feed Working Dogs Without Consent!

Today, I was on my way to history class. Suddenly, Hara stopped and I stuck my foot out to investigate. Turns out, some guy was sitting on a set of steps, eating his lunch. He took it upon himself to feed Hara a piece of his chicken. I seriously lost it!

You should never feed a working service animal without the handler’s consent! Scratch that, you should never feed any animals that isn’t yours. But bringing it back to my circumstances, you do not know if my dog has any special diet or dietary restrictions. There was another incident where I dug out a big piece of chocolate cake from Hara’s throat. I never felt her head dip to grab it from the ground. My guesses are that she snatched it from someone or someone fed it to her as we were walking by. I’m not a fan of either scenario!
