What was the most outrageous place you smuggled your furkid? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

chattiesmom · 09-10-2005, 06:25 AM

I know we have talked a lot about "smuggling" our furbabies into nono places, but I wonder who would win the prize for the most OUTRAGEOUS place. I have taken mine into Walmart (no big deal) and once a kitten to the movies, but what about you guys? How gutsy are you when it comes to your furkids?

hahahaha you took a kitten to the movies? how cute is that? Let's see....I drove cross country with my monkeys so I took them everywhere! I tried to sneak them into the Harley shop in Sturgis but a big burly man caught me and totally loved them up so that doesn't count (he even gave them Harley hats). When Simon was a baby I snuck him into the classes I taught at University

I also snuck both of them into Mt. Rushmore, that should count

hehe this thread is gonna be fun!

Lol I haven't had too much time to take her anywhere really but Walmart, Meijers, Target, K-mart (got kicked out though), an Antique store hehe they saw her and said oh she is so cute I got lucky. Nothing like Simonandhalie though! Todays adventure is going to be JoAnn's Fabric store b/c I heard they have Halloween costumes for her there!

NCyorkie · 09-10-2005, 07:36 AM

They do have costumes at JoAnns! I saw them last weekend...unfortunatley all the ones here were big ones...

chattiesmom · 09-10-2005, 07:53 AM

I take my babies to Joanns ..... what a big hit they are!!!! At first I hid Chattie in her Chattie bag, but I got brave and took her out and carried her proudly for the world to see!

jenefor · 09-10-2005, 08:55 AM

Gidget hasnt been out that much as far as stores go.....she does come in to the antique shops in town with me and in the coffee shops and the hot wheels store (it is when we are on a walk and I just scoop her up...strangly enough she actually just stays nicely in my arms :P)
and then she has gone to many car shows with us and went into a greasy spoon with us before one...I just think the people never noticed......

Lucky's Mom · 09-10-2005, 09:00 AM

Nothing to gutsy for me. I took him into Wal-Mart when I first got him and carried him around for everyone to see. I thought I was gonna get thrown out but all the Wal-Mart associates just wanted to pet him! I've taken him into the post office also. Just got some strange looks there!

Both Maggie Anne and Kenzie Nicole have been to mass (at different times and churches, however). For both it was when they were very wee...and both of them were ill, and I didn't want to leave them home alone.

Jeniferlee · 09-10-2005, 01:18 PM

Macy has been to a few demo derby's, the State Fair both of which have big signs that say DOGS NOT ALLOWED. We were are a floral shop and she stuck her head out of her purse and almost gave a lady a heart attack she told I had a rat with a bow in her hair. (some people)
We haven't went to many other places....

eensor · 09-10-2005, 01:24 PM

Before 9/11 Gracie (RIP my beautiful!) used to sneak on airplanes a lot! She also went to the grocery store, restaurants, etc. Miss Lexy hasn't learned to be quiet enough to be sneaked in anywhere!

Marlee · 09-10-2005, 01:37 PM

we have not been to many places. Walmart, Joannes, the kids school, winco (the local grocery store) etc. etc.

However my Brother has taken his furbaby places like the space needle and the mueseums.

I might get a few more on my list once we are in Vegas though. hehehehehe

Toby'sMama · 09-10-2005, 02:28 PM

I used to sneak my first baby everywhere. I started out by taking her to a Raider game when she was a puppy. We always went to the movies... the Ice Capades once, church, she snuck on airplanes more than once (pre 9-11), restaurants, and several hotels. I always took her to work with me, which included a bunch of high-profile law offices in Los Angeles, then to various stages, studios, theatres and studio trucks. Probably the strangest place I snuck her into was Richard Simmons house. I finally told him a couple of years later. Her name was Sneaker, which was very appropriate for her. My Toby now, is a whole different story. He doesn't know the definition of the word "sneak." He wants to let everyone know that he's "in the house." As soon as he sees someone, he starts his strut. I guess I've actually snuck him into a couple of hotels, but am always wondering when he's going to spill the beans!
