Booked a forward facing table seat as have some work to do on my way to a meeting. Arrived at seat to find woman with dog under the table who got on at the same station. Went to take my seat and she said “sorry you can’t sit there, I need room for the dog”. Dog does not have anything on it to identify it as a working dog. Surely she should have been sitting in the unbooked area if she wanted to hog all the seats?

This is bizarre

I hope you took your seat. fuck the dog!

You booked your seat and the dog does not need to sit on a seat. Is there a guard or ticket collector around?

Oh, just saw you arrived to find her in your seat. Politely ask her to move as it's your pre-booked seat.

I always find an assertive “Excuse me, I have booked this seat. Would you mind moving please?” works for me...
