Last week while in traveling in Arizona we found that we had to get something in a Walmart. It was 102 degrees so I would not consider leaving our little guy in the car. I walked right on in with him in a shoulder bag. Purchased the items I need and proceeded to leave. As we were walking out the "greeter" saw Caesar with his head sticking out the bag. He smiled and asked how we got him in since dogs are not allowed in Walmart. I smiled and replied "He's not a dog, he's a yorkie!"
The man had no response.
Perhaps some kind of rule could be made allowing dogs under 10 lbs. and their feet never touching the ground.
