Next time when the Uber accepts the ride, hit the message button and tell em “Hi, I’M CARRYING A DOG”, at least they can cancel the ride right then and there instead of driving over to you to cancel.
It’s silly but drivers can be all sorts of clueless
There are a number of animals considered unclean and most of it goes back to which animals had diseases before modern agriculture and veterinary practises. I.e pigs used to be riddled with tape worm. Dogs were often carriers of other parasites and if wild likely rabid. There’s some common sense behind it historically but most modern practitioners don’t think about those things.

Muslim drivers and some other cultures also want nothing to do with dogs.

If i don’t want pigs in my car that doesn’t mean I hate pigs.
They don’t like dogs either.
