    Does anyone know if I'm allowed to have my small, well trained dog in the truck while hauling sand to frack sites?

    There are lots of jobs and lots of money to be made but I have my dog. It's just her and I, I have no other family and nobody to watch her for those long days at work. One owner told me that the well site would kick his trucks off the site if they new a dog was in truck. I'm not doubting him or calling him a liar, just wanted some other opinions. Thanks

    personally, i see no problem. they may be afraid of the dog running around loose and either getting hurt, or causing someone else to be hurt, or bitten maybe..???

    I've got an 80lb pitbull that rides with me. Everyone at the well loves him. He doesn't get out at the well though.

    Devon has a rule against pets on location and maybe a few others. I never had any problems although I kept my dog in the truck as much as possible. Some of the flow hands had dogs too so apparently they don't enforce the rule very strictly.

    Lots of guys around here with dogs in their truck. Depends on the company you haul for I guess.
