Luckily my sewing studio is in the basement and my dogs won't go down the stairs; which is fine with me because I don't want their hair floating around. I have allergies, luckily not to animals, but find that people who do still are troubled with the dander just floating around, so it is really best to not let pets into or near your sewing area. When clients come to my house I gate the dogs in my bedroom but people with allergies have still had problems because they are walking through the house to get to my sewing area. People without animals are often offended to find animal hair on them or things they have.
