[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only logical solution.. Call the store/restaurant/whatever venue you are going to. If they allow dogs and that makes you nervous don't go. Find another spot. Clearly the ownership of those businesses have thought through their decision to allow dogs and it most likely is in their best interest to be dog friendly.

If you don't like the business' decision..take it up with them.

If I bring my dog somewhere that is allowed you have absolutely no basis for being annoyed unless my dog attacks you or is being annoying/barking. If you are deathly allergic to dogs and don't call the store to confirm and break out in hives..that's on you and nobody else. You are responsible for your life.

But the problem is that lots of people don’t ask in advance whether their dog is welcome at certain establishments. They just bring their dog and assume it’s fine if no employee asks them to leave. Even where dogs aren’t welcome, employees don’t feel comfortable asking customers to leave. Restaurants and retail jobs tend to employ young people who aren’t highly compensated, may not have much work experience, and don’t intend to keep the same job for very long. The burden for enforcement then falls to other customers, who don’t want to be accused of being “Karens.” When no one asks the dog owner to remove their dog, they believe they have confirmation that their dog was allowed.[/quote]
