Dog in ATM lobby—yes/no?

It also shows no consideration to people who might be allergic (they could be afraid the dog will lick them or jump on them, exposing them to dander, plus the inhaled allergens), or people who have a phobia and might be scared to walk past you to get inside.

Once more, for the cheap seats.....stop taking your dog into places that are not related to dogs and don't even allow them. Petsmart - yes! Grocery store - no!

You should ask the bank/drug store manager. they may be liable if dog does something to a customer. you are going to say "nah, not my dog"... but all owners say that

Sure - go ahead and do it! But I'm the a-hole who quickly ran into a Safeway early in the morning holding my dog in order to return a movie to the Redbox. In and out in under a minute.

Just. Stop. Learn to plan your life better.

Go forth, OP. We support you. 😁😁

If you are charged a fee for using this ATM then no. I only use the ATM at my bank so I don't get charged for withdrawing my own cash whether I have my dog with me or not.
