    This might be a stupid question, but do dogs have problems walking on escalators?

    I was confused on why everyone was carrying their dog and I think their paws or fur getting stuck might be the only answer that makes sense to me.

      The dogs are scared, and the escalator is legitimately dangerous to furry animals with long toenails, so in this case everyone wins. The safest option is also the cutest.

        Also I think a lot are just scared of it moving. I’ve also had dogs scared of walking on like grates, or stairs with open backs. Maybe it’s a depth perception thing. Maybe they just can’t comprehend it? I’ve had a couple pretty dumb dogs though. Still 25/10 puppers.
