Please leave dogs at home. [/quote] If the store allows dogs, your DC should stay home.[/quote] +1[/quote] I disagree. [b]A parent may need to bring a child to a store - maybe they don't have childcare and can't leave a child home alone safely. Pet owners can leave a pet at home. The default should be that the pet stays at home. [/b]I don't remember seeing random pets in stores and supermarkets when I was growing up. Somehow, pet owner expectations have changed and no one has thought through whether these new expectations are reasonable. Is the pet-friendly store liable if an elderly customer trips on a leash in a narrow store aisle? What if the dog bites someone? Or someone slips after stepping on a puddle of dog urine? [/quote] Girl, bye. It’s not [i]our[/i] responsibility to make adjustments for [i]your[/i] kid. I will always take my well-behaved dog places where she’s allowed. Maybe don’t have kids if you don’t have the resources to handle them. [/quote] This is a perfect example of where our culture has gone.[/quote] Exactly. People shouldn’t have kids if they don’t have the means to care for them. The world isn’t going to stop because you (or another) have a child with dog allergies and no childcare. Dogs will continue to be in dog-friendly places. Make better choices.[/quote] Children = human (meaning belongs in places where humans need to shop for their needs) Dog = not human (menqaing doesn't belong in a place where humans need to buy their food) does that help?[/quote] Where did I say differently. It’s almost like you’re arguing with yourself. What I [i]am[/i] saying is that I will take my dog wherever she’s allowed. If a store is dog friendly and you don’t like seeing digs there, you should take it up with management.[/quote] [b]You were also saying a lot of other things such as "if your child is allergic they should stay home" and "I don't need to make accommodations for your child." [/b]You do need to and should make accommodations for humans (children included). Don't know why you think your dog is more important. [/quote] Ah, yes. That was in response to the poster who said that—even if the store allows dogs—[i]“A parent may need to bring a child to a store - maybe they don't have childcare and can't leave a child home alone safely. Pet owners can leave a pet at home. The default should be that the pet stays at home.”[/i] So, yeah, that is where we disagree. I’m not making accommodations for your child. That’s solely your job and your responsibility.[/quote] And that's why you're an ass8ole dog owner. Your dog absolutely does not NEED to be there while a child might HAVE to be there. [b]Their rights will always supersede those of your dog.[/b] [/quote] Clearly that's not true, or dogs would not be allowed in any stores at all. [/quote]
