When Mojo was itty-bitty, four months old, we took him into Wal-Mart, just to pick up something (nowhere near the food) and the door greeter said "no animals". So we just left and didn't do our business there for awhile (as if that affected them any).

We stopped at a gas station (a little crappy country one, that is dirty) to get gas, stepped in the door to pay and the lady yelled at me to take him out, so I told that he was cleaner than her fat a$$ and anything in the store. I was so mad...come on, you walk in the door, the counter is right there! Geez.

When Mojo was little, we took him antique shopping with us and went into a candy shop, the lady thought I had a baby (Mojo was wrapped in his blankie) and then when she realized, we had to leave, so I loudly told my daughter that we would buy our candy from the other store from now on. That same day, we ate outside on a patio at a little cafe and the manager spent more time talking to us about Mojo than doing his job! We also went in the other candy store (I actually stood outside, until they asked why I wasn't coming in) and they told me to come in, that they didn't care!

We take him inside the bank all the time. In fact, they all get upset if we don't bring him. They even buy special treats for him, because he won't eat the kind that they keep on hand! Isn't that funny?!

I am afraid of causing a scene, so Mojo normally stays home while we run our errands. He has never liked to be in a bag....has to be in my arms to see the world. But he is quiet and doesn't bark much, would kiss a person to death though.

I meet one lady at a green house with her Yorkie and said that she goes everywhere with her. And that they quit going to the places that wouldn't allow her to come in. She knew that didn't affect or hurt the places, but she just didn't understand why she wasn't allowed to bring her in. I would love to do that, but in my area, there just aren't many places to go.

I think that we should live in a pet friendly world! I would rather my little guy be in the store than some kids and people I have seen! I do not see any harm in taking in a little dog that is carried in her arms and never let down. My husband and I were just talking about that because we are going away for the weekend and can't take Mojo (my parents are house sitting for us, so Mojo will be in his own home).

I can understand the food places and I know that if you let one do it, all will have to do it (regardless of size) and some owners may disobey the rules and let theirs down to pee or poop on the floors, but still..............
