[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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. [/quote]

I think the problem is when the establishment does not allow dogs (e.g., WalMart) and has a posted sign at the door to that effect, yet people still bring their dogs into the store.  The WalMart employees seem to not feel confident enough to tell those people to leave.  It's nuts.[/quote]

They maybe can’t due to policy. It’s very difficult legally to ask if a dog is actually a service animal, and to get identification as such as it violates disability legislation.

The dogs that I have seen in my local WalMart are not service animals.  Most are little maltese or poodle crosses that the owners put up in the cart basket and wheel around.  Some seem friendly, some seem terrified.  It's weird that the owners think this is ok.[/quote]

You’re missing the point.

Walmart can not easily ASK, because if these are truly service animals, they can not request they leave. But, in asking if the animal is a service animal, it can violate disability law.

So then, they end up in the media for being non disability friendly, or it costs them hundreds of thousands of dollars in a discrimination lawsuit.
