Perhaps a goofy question - if so I will take one on the chin.

OK
For some reason I found myself in an elevator in a hotel near the airport. Mid-dayish. Also aboard for this brief journey was a lady and her dog. Now, I am a dog person. I love dogs. I have a dog. And all dog owners I know love to talk dogs. So I said something akin to "What a beautiful dog. What's the breed?" (American Staffertshire terrier would have been my guess) I was answered with a most awkward non-acknowledgement which made for a very uncomfortable ride. Wouldn't be a big deal -she doesn't talk to strangers, so what - but of course paranoid me thinks "Oh my god she thinks I'm a 'john'! Is she a working girl? Have I just broken some sort of elevator code?" I realize that it would be unlikely that an SP would bring a dog to work, but, you know, the mind plays funny games on the way up to the hotel room.
So.
Is there a "don't talk to anyone for any reason" rule for hotel lobbies and elevators or is small talk acceptable and I was just caught with someone who didn't speak English.
 
I don't think you did anything wrong.
Most dog owners are usually willing to chat about dogs and would answer a question about their dog.

Either she was shy, doesn't speak English, or just doesn't like talking to strange men in a confined space.
 
Some people are just rude and/or don't want to converse.

I remember mid appointment once where the lady's cat jumped onto the bed. Lost a few months of my life from the sudden scare.

And apologies, I saw the title of the thread and immediately thought of the biggest point in elevator etiquette - don't fart!
 
Some people don't want to be bothered, don't understand English or perhaps cannot hear. That's hardly a reason to feel uncomfortable and does not make people that ignore you assholes.
 
So many possible reasons, but you will never know.

You didn't do anything wrong. I talk to people all the time. Stranges in elevators, waiting in lines, pretty much anywhere.

Some reply. Some just smile.

Don't ever stop being randomly friendly. We need more people to do it. So many people are closed off now and we need more openness.

I don’t think her response was due to a breach of elevator etiquette. I think it’s due to the breed of dog she owns. You said the dog was an American Stafforshire Terrier- aka a Pit Bull.

I believe Pit Bulls are banned in the GTA. It is a controversial breed. I’m guessing the lady was worried you were going to criticize her and tell her that Pit Bulls are illegal, she shouldn’t own one, etc. Obviously that wasn’t your intent but I’m guessing the moment you asked about the breed she got her back up.

I had a similar thing happen to me. I’m a dog lover too and I saw a guy with a dog that looked like a Pit Bull. I asked him in a friendly tone: “Is that a Pit Bull?” and the guy kinda snarled back at me and replied that it was. I didn’t mean any harm but the guy acted like I was trying to pick a fight with him over his dog and seemed really defensive.

Pit Bull owners can kinda be that way to begin with...plus they own a controversial breed so they probably get a lot of people on their case telling them how bad the breed is and how they’re jerks for owning one.

That’s my guess.

Maybe she doesn't like dogs. Therefore discerned you had nothing in common to discuss.
 
Youd be surprised how many SP will have a travel companion
I was with 1 who had a little friend when we were getting dressed after the fun...it jumped up on the bed and started dancing on its hind legs I looked at the SP and she said he wanted to give me a high 5...I did and he jumped down.

I thought wow I guess my performance was pretty good if the dog approved..LOL

On the down side

I was with another who had a travel companion and as we were doing the nasty all i could smell was dog shit( if you have dogs ..you just know that aroma)
so we stop and yup..it had crapped all over the floor..almost in my shoe...she apologized profusely cleaned it up washed up and we went right back at it....

Elevator etiquette - hold in that fart until you get off. Or blow and go, whatever mood fits you.

I had a blow and go in the elevator once but I plead extenuating circumstances. I was alone in a highrise office elevator going up to my floor and I had what I thought would be a harmless little puff of gas requesting permission to exit. I'm alone in what most likely is a none stop run to my floor ... permission granted.

I do not remember eating anything different that day, certainly not any raw sewage but the little puff felt like it was extremely hot, possibly moist. The stench that filled the elevator had me gaging. I had never had anything as bad before or since but it was truly eye watering. "Bing !" the elevator stopped before my floor and the doors opened. It looked like a lot of people who just finished a meeting (they were talking together) started to get into the elevator. I had no idea what floor I was on but I got out. As the doors closed behind me I heard a woman gasp .. 'oh, my God !'

Yes, it was blow and go but I throw myself on the mercy of the court. Usually I'm very charming company in an elevator.
 
Appreciate the responses. I think I just still feel especially rare on the way up to the room. For all I knew, this could have been who I was on my way to meet. For that reason alone, farting was out of the question.

I used to live on the 17th storey of a 19 storey building. A strong urge to fart hit me while waiting for the elevator with two other people in the lobby. We all got on and I was pleased to see they were both getting off before me. Waiting patiently for the second guy to get off, he does and I'm in the clear. With a sigh of relief, I let rip. But I wasn't in the clear, the elevator stops a few floors before mine, FUCK! The doors open to reveal a woman standing in wait. "Going up" I say, she nods while getting on. Any hopes I had of her not noticing were quickly quashed when I see a sour look immediately roll across her face. We stood there in awkward silence until the doors opened at my floor. I looked at her and blurted out "it was like that when I got here" and scurried out into the hall like a cockroach when the lights go on. Embarrassed, I chuckled to myself as I strolled through the hall. I haven't farted in an elevator since.
 
LOL! Well written.

I thought you were going to say that you forgot there was a third person in the elevator behind you.

LOL. I had a friend who purposely waited until we were in the elevator to let one rip. I curse him to this day.
