Suddenly, everywhere I go in my town somebody seems to have a dog in tow. They always say "he's a service dog", but they aren't. It's just people wanting to take their dogs with them. I love having MY dog with me, but I sure don't take him into places he's not supposed to be. I saw a lady put her little dog in a cart at Walmart one day, and the dog pooped. The woman pushed the cart to the side and got another cart. I mentioned it to a cashier so nobody would get a cart with poop in it, and the cashier told me not to use that cart if I had a problem with it!
I think it's up to US, dog owners, to play fair. Don't lie and say your dog is a service animal when it isn't. Don't take your pet dog into a restaurant, grocery store or a food place. Don't believe that YOUR dog is so special nobody could possibly be bothered by him/her. Just be fair! |
