Sawyer goes almost everywhere with me. I don't take him in stores where they sell food; but anywhere else is game. I took him to Bealls department store, and one of the clerks said I shouldn't have him in the store, and I said I only have to pick up a dress for my granddaughter; but I will get it somewhere else if you insist. She just smiled and said o.k. then . I took him to ti kuan do classes with my grandchildren yesterday, and he was so well behaved the teacher bowed to him and called him a little warrier. lol
