What’s wrong with it is that not everyone wants to be around dogs. I’m allergic and while I steer clear of them in stores it’s obnoxious that the dog is there. It’s a store/market/restaurant it’s perfectly reasonable to expect that an animal NOT be there.

I shouldn't have to keep my dog home because your immune system overreacts!

It's not everyone else's fault that you're cognitively like a toddler.

You wouldn’t last a day in the wild without your Flonase. I cannot help you. I don’t hear you raging about trees and flowers!

I don't have allergies to dogs. Additionally, I'm a grown adult who can function leaving my house without a wubbie.

And yet you speak like a toddler. Wubbie? Who says that? I work with kids and the only time I've heard that word was in the movie Mr. Mom--which tells me you're really, really old, if that's the only reference you have to describe a favored item. Get with the times, grandma! Either keep up or step aside.

Hey there little doggy mom, I’m not a boomer and likely younger than you, and you and your disgusting puppy doggy mutt are indeed acting like a toddler.

I think we’d all like to step aside and step around, but have you and your disgusting animal in our way. Time to grow up, doggy mommy, no one likes you.

1) My dog isn't a mutt. She's purebred.
2) Her breed has been specifically bred over centuries to be a companion dog, not a working dog. Being separated from humans for extended periods of time is stressful for this type of dog--just like it would be for you or me.
3) I'm not a mommy, she's not a baby, she's not a puppy, she's not a doggy and I'm not a doggy mommy. She's a dog, and I'm a human. We're companions to each other.
4) just took an overnight road trip with her where we stayed in a hotel (and paid the appropriate dog fee and clarified where she is and isn't allowed to go.) Mostly, she stayed in the room and I got take out for dinner that I ate in the room, and room service for breakfast. She walked through the lobby in the evening, and in the morning for walks. Without exception, every single person who saw her got excited, asked to pet her and genuinely loved seeing and interacting with her. They loved her.
5) The knucklehead who delivered breakfast took off without holding the door so I could bring the food in without the dog running out. As a result, she ran out, ran to the front desk where she hung out until I could put the tray down, grab a mask and slip my Birkenstocks on. The housekeepers and front desk staff who were nearby all lavished her with attention.
6) you might be right about some dogs, but absolutely not all dogs.
7) I used to be a miserable asshole like you, but then I changed my attitude and got a dog. Life is better when you're not looking for reasons to be daft and miserable and to inflict that misery on others.

You had me at PuReBrEeaAD.

Did you ever thing of restraining your own dog instead of blaming the delivery guy? Or taking the radical step of training the dog to respond to a voice command so you didn't have to chase it all over the place?

The last time I saw a dog in a shop it didn't bark or pee on the floor -- instead it pooped on the floor. Disgusting.

Dogs in stores make me smile. I love seeing happy dogs and happy people!

So your dog is not well trained enough not to dart out of the hotel room as soon as you open the door? Sounds like a great companion.

Also, hotels are not grocery stores. But you sound like a “miserable asshole” who only cares about your dog, so you probably don’t care that many people hate seeing your dog in a grocery store.

And who can't leave home without their security blanket/wubbie/pet? Toddlers, that's who.

Leave your live wubbie at home - grow up.

I love how at least half the posters on this thread are acting like female dogs for no reason. Woof Woof.

What bothers me more is when mom, dad, grandma and 3 kids all need to go to Costco together!!

YOUR dog de-stresses YOU. It creates stress for other people.

Do whatever you want with your dog at home and on your own property. But bringing your pet with you everywhere makes you a complete ahole, not to mention likely emotionally stunted.

And your kid creates stress for everyone else. Sounds like you need a dog though. Bring that stress level down! Unfortunately for you, stores are becoming increasingly MORE dog friendly so…

Sounds like many dogs are perfectly lovely when strolling the aisles of the grocery store but then there are some who pee all over the floor and lower shelves while the owner looks the other way.

I don’t have kids, but nice job showing your crazy colors by thinking there’s a remote comparison between dogs in stores and small human beings.

There is no enforcement either because people are going to be rude and scream at the employees or because they’re going to claim “emotional support”.

+1. I think mainly because we've transitioned into a society of the me-me-me generation. No one has any idea how to behave in a respectful society. We cannot do anything to coalesce, make life easier for each other, obey the rules, wear our masks, etc. Same mentality here. It's all about my comfort, MY DOG, my wants, ME, ME, ME. Heaven forbid we ask dog owners to think about their friends and neighbors. No, we don't want your dog poop, pee, hair or whatnot at the store. We don't want a barking dog out at a restaurant when we eat. We don't want your poop bags thrown on the sidewalk (see other thread). We don't want your dogs at school pick up to scare frightened children. I mean, when do these folks actually think about their communities? It's just such a crap stage to be in. Everyone does what they want because they want and screw the rest of us. And it's not just with their dogs, it's with everything. It's so draining.

Indeed. Let's ban the latter but not the former. Oh wait, how do we do that.

Keep your animals outside of stores and restaurants. No one wants your animal around.

Maybe you shouldn't also be so culturally insensitive. Many cultures consider dogs to be very dirty. If this area is so progressive, then why are many intolerant of other cultures by brining their dogs into restaurants/stores.

I like animals, don't get me wrong. Keep damn fluffy outside.
