This reminds me of an interesting situation that we had at our outdoor mall by us that is dog friendly. It's so close to our house that my DH and I take Gizmo there all of the time, and many of the store owners know Giz and are always happy to see him.
Well one day, I had Gizmo in Nordstroms with me and a lady yells to me, "Don't bring your dog over here!"
I looked at her and was just like, "Um, okay then."
Her response to me was, "Well, I have this big guy on a shock collar to it's highest setting and I have a choke leash on him, but if he sees your dog I don't know how he'll react and I don't want to be responsible for your dog getting hurt..."
This dog was a pit/mastiff mix it looked like. Easily pushing 200 lbs, and she as maybe 5 foot and 100 lbs.
Yeah...My husband headed for the hills because he knew my response wasn't going to be pretty. People are just down right stupid sometimes. |
