gone but so not forgotten love you KK

Thats wonderful!

I understand the concern with germs in a hospital, but I think they need to try and put more procedures in place for pets to visit their owners because I think it is very good for the spirit, to see your pet

As to the original topic: I try to take mine with me as much as possible but I won't leave them in the car, unless I can see it from where I am, and I won't sneak them in where they are not allowed, so they don't go everywhere with me. They get to go out plenty though. And they are fine when they are home, they are never crated and stay together, so they are always fine and happy when I get back.

yep every wear i take him to stores i do try respect the law and i don't take him in grocery stores if i can help it. i do take him in walmart and target but i always always stay away from the food section however i am a person of habit i go to the same places at the same times on the same days so they all know me the managers know me and i can even take Gatsby into my walmart on a leach (i had to once i could not hold the bag i was recovering from surgery) the people let him go because i live in a small town with a high population we get alot of look the other ways when it comes to regular customers the only thing i do not do is take him to movies i think the noise would upset him

We can't always take the girls with us, but we do take them everywhere possible, even the drive-in movies!

Here's a good place to start - I know there are a couple in my state that have been shut down, so you might have to call around

I have 6 all together so I take them only if I am not getting out of the car,or going to the dog park ect. I have a friend that has a small dog that she has a Badge for her Spike Min pin, and he is registered as a service dog, He is a companion dog, she takes him EVERY place. It cost around $30.00 per dog. Then they send you everything you need to take your baby with you. It is legal and no one can ask questions. Just like regular service dogs. Just that your dog makes you more comfortable and you need the animal with you. I know a few people that have done this with ther dogs and have no problems at all. The one friend takes her little guy right on the plane he walks on himself with a leash.If I had only one dog I would probably do it but I would have alot of explaining with 6. Just google registering your companion dog. I think it is 24.99 per dog . Brenda

Holly goes EVERYWHERE with me except in grocery stores or restaurants. She's only 3.6 lbs so she goes in her doggy bag nicely and sticks her head out. Target is the only store who has asked us to leave. It was a manager who asked, but normally every Target employee always stops to pet her and we've never had a problem before, so now we keep an eye out for that specific manager.

Not everywhere. No resturaunts, grocery stores,target or Wally world. I got brave yesterday and took him to the mall to go to the Apple store. I fully expected to get told to leave, but most people just smiled induldgently. I did check at the enterance though to see if there were any "no dog" signs- there weren't, so I figured I could always plead ignorance if they told me otherwise.

I take Mr. Darcy and Lizzie if the weather permits.....if I think it would be too warm to leave them in the car, then they stay home, unless it is an 'in and out' trip. It's weird though, I posted last year that Mr. Darcy throws up in the car - he has pretty well stopped that except the odd time, but the other day, we drove 35 miles, I was in and out 2 places - no throwups - then I got back in the car, turned around and he threw up?????? Lizzie doesn't do this......

Aloha,
I currently have 4 Yorkies, Artie is now 6 yrs. old and 10.5 lbs. he is the one that loves to go Shopping anywhere and anytime, he never barks and he stays in a Shopping cart if I'm not carrying him in my arms or in a bag. Abigail
is 5 yrs. old and 7 lbs., Pom-Pom their daughter is almost 4 and 5 lbs. and the youngest one at 4 months, with NO Name since I have'nt decided if I'm going to keep him? He's barely 3 lbs. They are all Trained not to Bark and lay down quietly in the Shopping Cart if I decide to take all of them it's usually to Petsmart. I will usually take Artie since he enjoys it the most or the new Puppy since I'm starting to Train him. Every where except WALMART & TARGET since they have Food/Groceries....I would never even try taking them in there and I personally think it's gross/nasty for any Dogs whether they are mine or someone elses Dogs to be near any kind of FOOD!
I also think it's Rude, unless it is a "Service Animal" for anyone to SNEAK them in.......I am a Yorkie Lover but that's one of my Pet Peeves! Along with Parking in the "Fire Zone", park in stall just like everyone else? I have seen so many Yorkies at WALMART! I have and will leave my CAR running w/the AC.
but me or my Girlfriend (who has 2 Yorkies plus my 4 Yorkies, 6 Total) will stay in the Car, so they won't get stolen! I take them every where, I don't have to insist on taking them there, where they are not allowed to begin with? Besides not everyone is a Dog Lover or Yorkie Lover and I have to respect that?

Yes Target does no under any circumstance allow dogs, I was asked to leave right away even though Bella was in a carrier!!!
