ok i know i may be in the wrong but i need to vent...Today, like many times before I went to "trader Joes" , for those of you that dont know its a supermarket...Bruno comes with me in his bag..Its a mesh see through bag that is zippered up..Well as i was at the checkout counter getting ready to pay for my items, this elderly couple in front of me who just finished paying started to complain that i had a dog in my bag..i guess as they saw that the kid at the checkout just smiled she got more upset and went to get a manager...manager came and said in a very rude manner "dogs are not allowed and you have to leave"..I Couldn't believe it...He is in a bag, quiet , unable to touch anything..I asked if I could at least finish paying for my items and she said no...I admit, the fury in me at that elderly couple put me in a rage and i felt the female shift manager was even worse.. The old lady had such a smug look on her face like she won..I understand about healthcode violations but give me a break!!! whats the difference about a large seeing eye dog? that can walk around and drool...I left the store so angry because my little bruno who weighs 4lbs is so precious...Humans are nastier and can carry more germs..I ran into the couple in the parking lot and shouted that my dog was cleaner than thier face and that they obliviously are no dog lovers...Dont they have anything better to do ?? Im so mad that i feel like calling the head manager and explaing the situation..If they are that strict then why isnt their a sign at the door? I definitely respect places that say "no pets allowed".. Im sorry for rambling on but im still fuming and i know i wont be returning to that store...Has this happened to anyone else before and how did you handle it????....
