Not being mean or rude or anything offensive, but why didn't you just put her in your purse and go ahead with what you wanted to do? That's what I would have done. It is absolutely none of that lady's business if my dog does her business in my purse. IT'S MY PURSE, she doesn't have to look, smell or clean it up. Then if she called someone, you could have told them what the lady said and the reason for a carrier is so your pet doesn't make a mess in the store and your purse serves the same purpose. See, if my dog is in my purse(and I do put them there) I don't see why I can't take them where ever I go. I wouldn't take them into a restaraunt(sp?) because of my own comfort. I'd be too worried about them getting restless and causing me not to enjoy myself. But even in a carrier they don't want them in the grocery stores. I have a carrier that hangs on you like the carriers for babies but it just looks like a purse. At one time or another all of my babies were too small to be seen in it unless they were standing on their hind legs. If all you can see of my baby is their nose or their head, what harm can there be in taking them into a grocery store? Ack - Sylvia |
