A tad bit long....
I was out with my Yorkie and shih tzu today since I just bought both of them new activist shirts and sweater and I wanted to take him to work and show him off. My shih tzu had on a red sweater with just a feminist symbol with a fist coming through it and Hooks just had on a rainbow striped doggie shirt with got rights on the back. Nothing major.
My boss and a few of the other ladies that I work with went to have lunch at a restaurant connected to a mall in town. There was this mobile pet grooming place in the parking lot and I just wanted to check it out since it was closer than my grooming appt later this afternoon. I walk up at first with my shih tzu and he is terrified of ppl and she was only able to fix my horrible try which was good enough for me and I asked her to see what she could do for my yorkie (who my boss was holding outside). I poke my head out to get her to bring him inside and she takes one look at my yorkie in his shirt and says "I am sorry but I am going to ask you to leave".
I thought maybe it was because she had a horrible experience with yorkies or something and I said "No, he isn't like my Leo. He loves everyone. I am pretty sure he would follow anybody home if I let him". She then said " I have the right to refuse service to you ppl and I am christian woman with values and morals and I will not service your kind or your animals".
I was shocked and I was like are you serious, because of the shirt
. She said don't make me call the police and my boss just told me lets go it is not worth it. I then told her that I won't support her ignorance and hatred, so I wasn't paying for the cut she did for Leo and she said you can burn in hell with your money.
We left of course but I was just shocked. My boss (forever the funny lady) said that "I am offended that she thought that you would be my type"
