After ex-T allowed me to bring my puppy into session, I have since asked my Ts if I could ring her in. T said no because of building policy, but otherwise, she would have said yes. I asked L one day if I could bring her, and she said yes! I now bring her on and off. It really helps. I like to bring her when I know it's going to be a rough session. She is a companion animal (i.e. not a pet), but she is not a therapy or service animal.
