The rule book talks about the criteria for reasonable accomodations:

"The accommodations should not fundamentally alter the sport, allow an otherwise illegal piece of equipment, create risk to the athlete/others or place opponents at a disadvantage.".

Does a dog sitting in the dugout fundamentally alter the sport? Nope.
Does it allow an otherwise illegal piece of equipment? Nope.
Does it create a risk to the athlete/others? Unless the dog bites...nope.
Does it place opponents at a disadvantage? Barring an opponent with a very sensitive dog allergy, nope.

Absolutely legal in my opinion - wouldn't have any patience with anyone objecting either, a total jerk move and probably illegal actually.
