[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dogs can be brought to the bus stop, but dogs should be kept at least 15 feet away from the actual bus stop area.  Those who want to socialize with the dog are welcome to go over to where the dog it, but the dog should not be brought to the children.  Dogs should also be firmly in the control of the dog owner away from the bus stop area.[/quote]

This.  If you have older kids, and a well behaved dog who isn't going to bark or lunge, it's fine to bring them, leashed to the bus stop.

If your kid is going to need you to walk them to the steps of the bus, or your dog is going to get close enough to touch other people who aren't actively seeking out your dog, then it's not OK.

Also, while I have your attention, please don't tie your dog up so that people who are using a sidewalk or an access ramp can't get past without being in your dog's space.  It's absolutely ableist and offensive to block access for people who can't use the stairs or step into the grass.  [/quote]
