I have brought a yorkie into, Walmart once but now they have the grocery aisles so not allowed any more. The dollar store, the grocery store for quick run ins. Corner stores, hardware store. I try different stores but if they sell food they don't want you in usually. I tried a bargain store once but they kicked me out lol probably because of the grocery aisles. I always carry her in my arms. In the winter I put them in my coat and let her head pop out, thats what I did with Stormy anyways. Oh yeah and I've brought Stormy to the nail salon before too!
