Reddit User Wonders If They're A Bad Person For Petting Someone's Emotional Support Dog Without Asking Them

Sometimes, unexpected things happen, like a regular bus ride turning into a surprising encounter. A Reddit user, u/Ultralusk, shared a story that got everyone thinking about how we interact with emotional support animals.

The OP shared that they normally worked from home, but suddenly one day they needed to go to the library because there was no internet. They got on a bus, and things got interesting when a lovely golden retriever came aboard. Because the OP really loves dogs, they petted that dog, not realizing it would lead to a confusing situation. The owner of this dog got angry and called OP a selfish a**hole. This incident made the OP wonder whether they were wrong for petting that emotional support animal. So they came to the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit to write a post and ask the internet for their opinions. (Because the internet always helps.)
