OK, maybe I did not have all facts, but I think it is important to be considerate of other peoples feelings on this, not all people love our dogs all the time like we do! And they don't have to! and we should not impose our dogs on them. I know there was a period of time (about 5 years )when I was dogless. During this time, my niece would always want to bring her dogs, when she came to visit from out of state and I was made to feel like a bad person if I said "no" to her bringing her dogs. I don't bring Jonah everywhere I go, I try to remember he is a dog "my dog" and most people just want to see me. On the other hand, when they visit my house they are required to put up with my dog. Well behaved little man that he is!
