Our city is dog friendly, so lots of great restaurants on our downtown mall have outdoor seating and allow dogs. Other than that, he only goes in Lowes, pet stores and TJMaxx because they don't have a problem with it or else he stays home. Out of town, he goes everywhere. If they don't allow dogs, then unless I can park right in front of the store or restaurant where we can see the car, he goes inside his Sherpa bag. I never leave him in the car if it is warm out or in a parking place I cant watch. No one has ever known he was in his bag, not even in restaurants. We usually pick a noisy one and sit somewhere in a corner or booth. I know its wrong inside the restaurants, but when we are traveling, sometimes we don't have choice due to weather or parking. |
