Having on occasions tried to make lace with one or other of our cats on my lap, I can't for one minute imagine any professional lacemaker having a dog on his/her lap, which would prevent easy continuation of work, and add the risk of stray dog hair getting into the lace and ruining hours of work. More likely they were kept as ratters (as in the other article) than lapdogs.
