[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I completely agree with you. For context I don’t have a dog now but have had multiple over the years. Every single one was so well-trained I could control them with hand signals. In permitted off leash areas, if I whistled once, and gave the hand signal, my dogs would rush over to a sit position next to me. Training dogs to that level took years when they were young, but it wasn’t actually that hard, just daily short work sessions. However, I don’t have a dog now in part because I don’t think I have time to properly train one.

Recently I was in a grocery (!!!) store and someone walked in with their clearly badly behaved dog. And that dog just walked up and lifted a leg and peed on the vegetable display. Just right in front of everyone. The person waited for the dog to finish his business then went on as if nothing had happened. Someone else said in horror “hey, your dog just peed on the display” and the guy shrugged and smiled and walked off. 🤢🤢🤢

I so wish I could respond to this story with disbelief, but I have seen such aggressively horrible dog owner behavior in the last 3 years that I do believe this happened. Including the part with the guy smiling and walking away.

Just a few years ago, the idea of someone bringing even a small, well-behaved dog into a grocery store would have been considered really bad form. Now I regularly see people bring in huge dogs. I've seen people with unleashed dogs in the grocery store. I saw a woman who I think was a dog walker in the TJs near my house recently with FOUR dogs on leashes, wandering around the produce section at 11am. Like, what on earth. Why would you do that? I don't get it.[/quote]
