I think it's sad that the little dog couldn't stay in the shop -- but Holy Cow - after paying two fines, you'd think the lady would have realized that she just can't have her dog there....... I really think she was just asking for more trouble by not complying with what she had already been told. Even I could have figured that one out!
What did she do - pay a $400 fine and then take her dog back to the salon the next day and every day until she was caught and fined again - and then take the dog back again the next day until she was caught and fined even another time.......??????
I really am sorry she couldn't have her dog there -- but I'm telling you -after the first fine, I wouldn't have taken my dog back, and I wouldn't be in the situation she is in today.

FROM THE ARTICLE ........ after having a dog in various barbershops since 1965, (the owner) faces fines of more than $5,100 for repeatedly violating the state regulation that prohibits pets ....
She kept bringing the dog in and the penalty skyrocketed......
She says "I can't understand it." "I can't even describe the feeling."
-----------------------------------------------------------
She may be 82 - but it sounds like she's smart enought to have known better than to get herself in this situation.
****** You wait - they'll probably cut the fine in half or less - she'll get it paid and then take her dog right back into the shop...... do you think she might do this?
