It actually looks silly, plus dogs are not assessories  No matter how cute it may look... Perhaps those who like to do so Need or crave that extra attention. Look ar me ! I have a dog in my purse! I am special! I am rich! I have a yorkie! Wow see me, I am cool, wait a minute until I vomit.  i am just trying to figure it out and understand. Guess I don't get it?
You say you don't want to be judged? You set yourself up for that. Disneyland has a boarding facility. They do not allow dogs inside the park. Only a handful of hotels will allow dogs, and when they do their are very strict rules .
Most places Do NOt Allow dogs , NY< does sound nice for that though. Good thing that people just look the other way... It still looks dumb. I rather see a dog in a persons jacket or in your arms then a purse. I got anther little dog for my yorkie and they are as happy as can be when we are not home.
The attitudes of some of those who carry around their dogs everywhere and in stores is astounding. RIDICULOOUS> |
I did this so I wouldn't have to bring them all over the place with me. Also whoever thinks that dogs are equal to children are CRAZY. I feel really really bad if there is someone who cannot have a child and chose to have dogs rather than adopt human children, yes dogs are our family and we love them but as a soon to be mother I now understand that there is a HUGE difference between an animal and a human being.
As for entitlement attitude I totally agree. If the store says NO DOGS or you are told to take the dog outside then LISTEN don't back talk and mouth off. It's their rules and policies. You wouldn't ask to break the law for a child so why break the rules of the store for a DOG???
Take em' everywhere you can but leave em' at home with a pet sitter or another puppy friend when you know that you can't take them into a store.
