[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the OP calls a furry purse dog, a person suffering from PTSD or crippling anxiety or a variety of other diagnoses calls a medically  necessary lifeline. Asshat.[/quote]

huh?

People with crippling anxiety aren't walking around  TJs in Tory Burch flats with hair extensions.

really, PP?  exaggerate much?[/quote]

People can only have crippling anxiety in sensibly priced shoes?  Or hair extensions that are less obvious? Or at Giant?  I'm not sure what your point here is.[/quote]

If you have crippling anxiety, you'd be using a grocery delivery service.

Honestly, the complete crap people throw out there to justify bringing their dogs everywhere is out of control. [/quote]

I could care less about the dog, but there are plenty of people with severe anxiety who work hard to stay involved in day to day life, even when that is very very difficult.

The idea that you only qualify for help (of whatever kind) if you are so disabled that you can't use the help anyway, or if you let it control you, is really offensive.  I don't know anything about this dog situation, but I do know that there are people with mental health issues who wear Tory Burch, or hair extensions, and who shop at TJ"s.  [/quote]

Oh come on, you know there's no reason to bring your dog into any store (aside from a pet store), but especially a grocery store, barring REAL medical need - and everyone knows those dogs are actually hardly noticeable due to their rigorous training.

Why else bring your dog everywhere? Because you like attention? Because it's your security blanket? There's simply no other reason at all. [/quote]

[b]Because they like their dog, the dog is social, and when a dog is small you really can (physically) take it everywhere. Maybe the DOG has anxiety. [/b]

What I can't fathom is why anyone cares so much. I could understand if the dog was peeing on the food, barking, or biting, but that doesn't sound like the case. It's not like everything in Trader Joes was perfectly sanitary until the dog owner came in.

Again, I'm not a dog owner, but I fail to understand why the OP is so outraged.[/quote]

Oh bullshit. Come on now. We're not talking the local park, we're talking bring your animals to the grocery store. If you can't understand why anyone would be annoyed by that, then you must have a lot of bad antisocial traits that should probably be further examined. [/quote]

Okay, I'm going to up the stakes: I am not a dog owner because I have no interest in the care involved, but I would be thrilled to see a woman carrying a dog in her purse at TJ's.  It's distraction for the kids and I can probably babble to them about for a good 5 minutes till they're bored with me.  I think it's a public service.[/quote]
