A couple questions.. First, I like the "teddy bear" cut on Joey. His little foot hairs are rounded and he really looks like a stuffed teddy bear when he lays on his back. How do I keep that cut without having to wash his feet everyday when he goes outside? Especially in wet weather? Next, do you limit where you take your dogs? Example, I work in a pharmacy, we have a drive through. Would you take your dog inside, or would you simply drive through? I only ask because I want to take Joey places but I feel rude sometimes when the employees give me the stink eye. |

I'm not sure how to keep his feet clean unless you put little shoes and/or socks on him maybe ? I don't take Mandie anywhere. But I know many stores would not say a word to you as long as Joey was in a carrier. The only reason I don't take Mandie anywhere is because I did a bad job at getting her used to that sort of thing early. Her only real outing (other than the vet) was going to get her pics made with Santa Paws at PetSmart. She shook the entire time. |

The city close to where my boyfriend lives is very very dog friendly...they have restaurants that allow you to bring the dogs in to the patio seating areas when you eat. I haven't tried that yet but will be this summer!! |

Our city is dog friendly, so lots of great restaurants on our downtown mall have outdoor seating and allow dogs. Other than that, he only goes in Lowes, pet stores and TJMaxx because they don't have a problem with it or else he stays home. Out of town, he goes everywhere. If they don't allow dogs, then unless I can park right in front of the store or restaurant where we can see the car, he goes inside his Sherpa bag. I never leave him in the car if it is warm out or in a parking place I cant watch. No one has ever known he was in his bag, not even in restaurants. We usually pick a noisy one and sit somewhere in a corner or booth. I know its wrong inside the restaurants, but when we are traveling, sometimes we don't have choice due to weather or parking. |
I have taken Huey in quite a few places, both dog friendly and not, sometimes in a carrier, sometimes me holding. I would never let him to the floor anywhere besides petsmart or Lowes. He has been is Walgreens several times, Steinmart once and even IHOP once and the grocery store ( in a carrier, in the cart). He is very quiet and well behaved in stores, amazingly enough, since he barks his fool head off the rest of the time:D |

LOL Joey is quiet at the stores hes been to too...even though an ant crawling outside at home will make him bark like theres no tomorrow. |
We keep Kyra's feet rounded also. I just rinse them under the faucet at night and towel them dry. I would be careful letting mine drink from public dishes set out by these places because of infections or parasites others who drank from them before may or may not of had. |
As someone who's worked in quite a few retail places, most places don't mind if the dog is off the ground in bag/carrier. While your pup may be trained to go outside, all it takes is one dog going on the floor during your shift and you find yourself watching every dog that isn't being held. If he's quiet and in a carrier, I doubt anyone will outside of restaurant or store with grocery would tell you to leave. |

Hes got a water bottle with us at all times when he goes out. I am so scared he will get over heated down here. |
