This is probably a hotly debated topic. I did not read the whole thread. Although I am not all that much a rule follower I know whatever applies to me applies to everyone. Sooo although my boys are clean and UTD on shots and all that good stuff, other people's dogs may not be and I certainly do not want them in a food store or restaurant where I am eating. Food stores, restaurants and Emergency Rooms, I don't think pets need to visit those places unless they HAVE to.
