I take Kizzie everywhere with me.. She is ALWAYS in my purse (which is a purse made for dogs) so she never hits the floor.
Because when I am shopping it's often on my way home from work (where kizzie also goes) It doesn't make sense to take her home then drive all the way back out to go do some quick shopping when she can sit in my purse nicely and not bother anyone.
So far the only place that has asked me to leave is Jo-anns, however, the girl at the cut counter said to leave, the person at the register and the one at the door said it was ok because she was in my purse and not on the floor.. Same store, same visit..
Kizzie has been in the grocery store with me even, most people comment on how cute she is if they even notice her, but because she's in my purse they don't have a problem. The guy at the meat counter even offered her a little treat since she was being so good in my purse.
If she isn't allowed in the store, I just wont shop there anymore.. it's not that difficult, it's their choice to not allow dogs in purses, however it's also their loss as i will find somewhere else to shop and spend my money.. There are lots of places to go..
Kizzie is a part of my family and I feel leaving her home for hours at a time is cruel when I can just take her with me. |
