Emmie is fine with her stroller as long as people don't poke their fingers at the net and at her. Then she barks at them. Our new puppy Izzy B. does not like being inside the stroller so we put her puppy bed on top of the stroller where the cup holder is and she rides on top. So far, we have taken them to a Mall in Amarillo and outside of Dallas, to several furniture stores, to Lowes, lots of arts and craft shows. We have been asked to leave Home Depot (to their loss) because we are refurbishing a 2-story home and spending a fortune but Lowe's welcomes our babies with open arms!!! We had snuck Emmie into Wal Mart a year or so ago several times before we had the house in Amarillo and would drive 2 hours to shop and it would be too hot to leave her in the car, and we didn't have a place to leave her in Amarillo. We never, ever went into the food section, and I am like the other person who answered here - there are little kids running around spilling their drinks on the floors, pulling stuff off the shelves, pooping and puking on the carts, but they won't let our little contained puppies in the store!!!!! Oh, well. We live in a very small town (2500 people) and have been thrown out of Dollar General and our local donut shop (the one time I year I went in for 5 minutes!!!). I have noticed most store owners don't mind, though, as long as they are in a stroller, bag or in your arms, and not down running around. We just went to a new furniture store in Amarillo last week where a "concierge" sp?? met us at the door. We asked if it was okay to bring them in (in the stroller) and he said it was okay as long as they did not run around on the floor. But now that we have a house in Amarillo we tend to leave them at home more.
