We used to take Chloe everywhere but people gave us dirty looks and we got kicked out of places. I made the comment, I just went into the restroom and watched two of your employees use the bathroom and not wash there hands yet, my dog who is in a bag asleep can't come in. They told me to put her in the car, I said I'd rather starve. |

Go you!!!! We haven't attempted to take Charlie to publi places and to be honest with you I'm kinda scared of the reactions I'll get. :rolleyes: |
I don't take mine because 1) they are not really allowed anywhere around here other than PetSmart, and 2) I don't think they would enjoy it very much...they'd rather sleep on my bed! We take our Bassett outdoor places like the park and state park areas where they are allowed. If you want to take you little one someone but are unsure if it's allowed, call first and ask.:) |
I take Hot Rod on errands. So far no one has gotten upset. I don't try to take him to restaurants but I have taken him into the grocery store in a carrier--for a really quick trip on the way home from errands. Everyone usually ooh's and ahh's over him and I have met so many people who have either had or have yorkies! |
Cody James goes with me to places that allow pets. And he is on his leash until we go in and then he is in my arms. we pee before leaving and coming back. he has been with me to pay my bills. we go to the bank (mostly drive thru. we went in once), farmers furniture just to the counter to pay and then leave, cable company, blockbuster and radioshack. it's a small town and petsmart is an hour away. so he doesn't really get to go with me much. :( just on the first when i go pay my bills.. cause no one has ever made a comment about him not allowed. a friend of ours from YT is sending us a stroller!! it's his valentine present.. we can't wait!!! it's gonna come in handy!!!!!!! cody loves to ride. i need to get him a new car seat he outgrew the one we have now. |
Here, I bring Pao whenever I could bring him. I know he'd rather be out with me than staying at home. He is very good in his bag. He will stay still and be very quiet and thinks he is "invisible" hehe. Sometimes he falls asleep inside when he is tired lol :animal36 I have brought him to Wal-Mart before a few times in the bag and I have seen bigger dogs in there with a leash. Also, we go to Canadian Tire, dogs are allowed there and to the mall. I just carry him or put him in his bag when I go in to a store. I don't bring him to our local Petsmart because I have seen a lot of owners who are not able to control their big dogs and they go wild in the store. The only down point is, I can only carry him for so long because 10 pounds to me is pretty heavy so we have to take breaks go outside and put him down on a leash. |
Let's face it...you are in the dog house along with your dog when you try to take them everywhere with you. I had many a meals shivering in the cold sitting in the patio area of restaurants this winter. Luckily it's Los Angeles so I'm not talking about sub zero weather but it is still damn cold to sit outside sometimes when you can be toasty inside sans dog but I rather not leave him alone at home so I suffer through it. He doesn't like being confined in bags (darn!) so I carry him when I am in stores. Yes they can give dirty looks but unless they tell me I can't take him in...I don't care. He gets very squirmy and wants to be put down so he can be nosey but that is a sure way of getting thrown out. |
I don't actually... I never take my dogs into a store or anything. but I have 2, so its a lot harder than just one to sneak em in! |
i only take odie in the car with me and only if i know i'm not going to be in the store or where ever for a while there arent signs that say no dogs allowed, but i saw this lady at walmart and they were giving her such a hard time but she was holding her doggy in her arms...so ehh, idk mommy needs her alone time to go shopping haha |
I don't, unless he needs to be there. I've brought him to petsmart for a harness fitting but I'm not sure I'd even bring him there regularly because of the other animals. Dogs don't belong anywhere food is around, period. I don't care how clean the animal is, a lot of people have a problem with it and although I don't think I'd mind it, I respect others and I wouldn't want to cause a fuss. Aside from that, he's not a baby. He's an animal and can be treated as such. |
Ziggy goes some places with me , I dont want him to absolutely follow me everywhere. I think there needs to be some separation, so sometimes when i go get something to eat to go Ill take him. Sometimes Ill lwet him stay home |

when my moms dog was little i tried to take him around (just in my arms)... i would ask if dogs are allowed and mostly they just said i dunno or i dont care so i would bring him in. it was weird because it really depended on who i was with or what i was wearing. if i looked more grown they never bugged me, but if i looked like a teenager or whatever they say something :confused: i got kicked out of this store called THE BUCKLE... this stupid like pacsun like store. this sales girl said.. in this snotty voice, hes real cute but you cant have a dog in the mall and i was like... ive been walking in the mall all day and none said anything not even the security guards... and she said well you have to leave.. ERR.. i think if your dog is quiet and in a stroller or bag they are comprable to a baby and should be let in lol (except for food places, i understand that). |
I take my dogs everywhere except restuarants and supermarkets. I like taking them to places like HomeDepot, Marshall's, Joanne's, Hollywood Videos, etc. I like putting my boy yorkie (6.5 lbs) in the shopping cart, he loves standing up with his front legs on the edge of the cart. I usually hold my girl yorkie (2.5 lbs) with a blanket. They both behave really well, and so far I was not confronted by anyone. I was confronted by an employee one time when I went to Target with my big boy and I never go in with my babies anymore. When I go to an indoor mall (not all the malls welcome dogs here), I put my boy in a carrier, he will just stick his head out sniffing wherever I go. I was 'kicked' out one time in another mall by a security, I now boycott that mall. |
When I flew to Oregan.. I took my Charli.. ( Now Donnas Raziel) I have a little Carrier that looks like a purse and nobody knew she was there she did GREAT not a peep, NOW IF I get a chance to go anywhere by myself (with TWO LEGGED KIDS) I will take my girls.. WHICH now that I have 3 kids under 5 that dont happen to often...lol |
pups in public I take mine with me all the time. they are so good in my carrier (they love to go bye bye ):cool: that most never know and the ones that do just gush all over them. I only take one at a time. but what a difference when we go to the park they are all over the place and barking. |
