Yes...I actually got kicked out! I was running in Lund's grocery and had Chewy up on my shoulder. Ran to the ice cream section and ran to the checkout line not before the manager was quickly walking toward me - yikes! She did say I couldn't have my little pup in there so I handed her my visa and driver's license and said..."Well, then will you purchase this for me since I have to leave?" Surprisingly enough she was more than happy to help. I waited outside the store 50 feet away from the cashier and watched her through the window. She came out seconds later with my card and ice cream. But hey, I wasn't going to leave him in the car...not even if it's for a minute!!! Even if I had to sacrafice my treat - haha.
