The diaper of the drooling infant sitting in the highchair in a restaurant is closer to food than my dog, sitting enclosed in my purse. Stores? Dirty kids touching fruit and vegetables then putting them back. ick. (my dog doesn't do that) And allergies? Anyone that is THAT allergic to dogs shouldn't go out in public b/c service dogs (legal) would kill them.
Most of my life I have been a rule follower. I am over 50 and I have never even been stopped by a cop. I actually go the speed limit. I don't steal, even my employer's time. Anyone on this website during business hours is probably breaking a rule. Harmless? Maybe.
That's the way I feel about taking my dog. She is totally harmless to everyone and no one even knows she is there. Except me. And her being there makes my life better and easier.
Am I breaking a rule? yup. do I care? not at all.
Do I think she is human? heck no. better than most. |
I couldn't have said it better myself...you took the words right out of my mouth!
