I had a wiener dog growing up and her paw got stuck in one of them. Since then I refuse to let any dog walk on them.

Edit because this got me looking at old pics at my mom's place. RIP Ruth, you were a real good dog. Don't worry folks, she went quietly in her sleep at 19.

Same with our wiener mix dog. She’d never seen a grate like that before we moved to NYC but instinctively knows she doesn’t want to walk on them.

It’s also sometimes the way the sound echoes in them that really spook dogs.
