I agree that if you can't (and shouldn't) leave a child in a vehicle the you shouldn't leave an animal in one. If I tried to go into walmart with my child in a dirty diaper, no shoes, no clothes, messing hair, snot running down it's face, and filthy feet people would stare but nothing would be said (I've seen it!).  But if I bring my freshly bathed, shiny, brushed, smell pretty, Daphne  in there I risk being kick out. That is just plain ignorant.  Some of the kids (and adults) are more unhygenic than my dog and probably more likely to bite!  |
I know a lot of people are dirty, and a lot of dogs are cleaner than most people. But imagine the lawsuits that would come up if they told a person that they couldn't come in the store because they smelled. They can't discriminate like that.
