Do you really not understand what dog dander is? It is an allergen, all dogs have it. There is no such things as human dander or being allergic to humans. Jesus Christ. |
NP. All mammels have dander. It's a part of the body. and yeah, it's been studied, and you can be allergic to human dander. Human dander in house dust allergy. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/563310 "The sera with IgE to the skin extract also had high IgE titres to either house dust, D. pteronyssinus or cat fur. RAST inhibition studies revealed cross-reaction between the human skin extract and both a D. pteronyssinus extract and a cat fur extract." |
Agreed. |
| I love dogs. We have two gorgeous, extremely well-trained, well-behaved German Shepherds. If you saw me out with one of them, you would likely assume he was a service dog. They are that well behaved. I would never in a million years bring my dog into a store unless it was a Pet Store. I think they are just about the greatest things in the world. But they are dogs. They do not belong in CVS. |
| You're an asshole. Dog people are not crazy, dogs are not filthy, when properly taken care of. Stop being a dog-hater. My two pugs would be stolen off the street -- they're expensive and sought after animals. And they'd never hurt a child, or human of any size so who care if I have them with me? Most people allergic to dog are allergic to their saliva so dog must like them to be triggered. Some, yes, are allergic to their dander but having them in a store for 10 minutes won't be an issue.... |

"So then leave your animal outside. Or in the car. If it's that important, your dog didn't need to come with you." Dogs in the car in anything over 75 degrees is DANGEROUS AND CAN KILL THEM, look it up dummy. |
Eh. I choose not to have a dog because I don’t like dogs, so leave your dogs at home where you can enjoy them and I don’t have to. It’s the same reason I don’t like dogs pooping and peeing on my lawn and in my flowerbeds and their owners dropping their little crap bags in my garbage bin. I don’t have a dog because I don’t like those things. You want it, you deal with it. |
If CVS says they belong, then they do. |
No. I mean, just no. If I'm permitted to bring them, I will. End.Of.Story. You can live in your sealed bubble in your pee-free yard. Also, you would be in the fetal position in Europe. There are dogs everywhere in many countries over there. On tours. In restaurants. |

Recently I had three occasions where people had brought their dog into restaurants (5 guys and Chick-fil-A). One was a purse dog, one was a dog in a stroller and one was just your average mutt Labrador. I said to the lady with the mutt, oh they let dogs in at CHICK-FIL-A now? And she said if they are support animals.
Um no. My dog stays at home. I never bring him to stores because he likes to bark at men (not women, just men). He is an allergy friendly dog but still. He doesn't belong in stores. I remember when he was a puppy wishing I could take him on my errands like I could my newborn. But I still didn't. No one is going to win this debate, so I think we should let it lie. There will always be bozos that bring their animals out where they don't belong. |

CVS isn't going to stop you from wearing a tutu with clown shoes, or drenching yourself with offensive perfume, or smacking your gum and sniffling, but if you come in doing any of those things, people are going to think you are obnoxious and powerfully irritating. See how that works? It's the same with bringing in your dog. CVS will take your money, but that doesn't mean you are a respectful, likeable person who isn't irritating the hell out of everyone around you. |
| It's hilarious how angry people are getting. If an establishment allows dogs then people can and will bring their dogs. If you don't like it then you're going to have to DEAL WITH IT or LEAVE the establishment. You are the entitled ones who want people to cater to what you want, even if they aren't breaking any laws or rules. You are the problem. |
You are delusional. You are the one everyone only tolerates in the friend group. |
Yes, you are the most important person anywhere. Whatever you want is the most important. |
