A question? Is it the group or the facility that is against dogs on the grounds? My home group in AA allows dogs to the meetings that take place in the basement of the Presbyterian Church here. Not everyone would bring their pets and I certainly would not as I had Rex the wild man, a full blooded 2 year old big German Shepherd that was a rescue whose previous owners taught him nothing. He would have caused a distraction. Or happily slept at my feet after he patrolled the grounds. But my home group has no objection to dogs. The dogs that have been there were not even service dogs or in training to be so.
