I lived in the Belmont Shore area of Long Beach for 3 years. It was so awesome! Everyone has dogs there (little & big.) Almost all of the restaurants have outside eating areas and the stores have dog biscuits inside so you can feed your dog a treat. I wish that I still lived there now that I have Izzie.... Everyone there is so open-minded about you bringing your furbaby wherever you want. I took Izzie to an intermural basketball game last week. The guy at the gym was like "You can't have a dog in here" when I tried to get her to go on her piddle pad. I sat right next to him for 30 minutes and he didn't even notice her! She started chasing him down the hall and when he picked her up, she licked his face. He then said "just clean up after her, okay?" That's my girl! :D |
I have never snuck (is that a word?) any of my three in a store. Too chicken. Plus, I've gotten a little quicker with the mouth and slower with the brain and hard telling what I would end up doing....probably making a fool of myself. |

I agree, I hate being kicked out of places (we've even been kicked out of outdoor swap meets for having Zoe) but I understand restaurants and supermarkets could loose their business license in CA if they allow pets |
So far so good..... Ive had lil Sam almost a week and he is an official "go" furbaby. He has been to three different Wal~Marts, two Targets, two Big Lots, $ Tree, $ General, Lowes... Quick Check.. oh the list goes on and on... lol I do put him in my carrier that really looks like a purse and set him in the buggy. I give him his bully stick and he is good to go! He pops his lil head out towards the end tho when I go to get my wallet. And I hope that I am prepared to speak with the manager at Target or Wal~Mart if I do get kicked out .... only to say... you know what, if you sell the bags that people can carry them in then you, as a company, should expect to see them being used in your store!!!!! Knock on wood that we dont get kicked out but if we do, its understandable |

Dallas is supposed to be passing some law - and may have already that you can have your dog on the patio of a restaurant as long as they are behaved. |

I take bandit everywhere without a carrier and walmart and costco is the ONLY place that has asked me to leave. I took him furniture shopping last week, and i assume they didnt ask me to leave because they wanted my money.. funny how that works. When I was in Germany people took there dogs to resturants, i guess its not a heath code for them? The table next to us had A german shepard laying in the aisle.. maybe I should move there! |

Actually any establishment that serves or sells food items do not allow dogs for health reasons :) So expect to be kicked out unless you sneak them in discreetly :p The only dogs allowed are "service" dogs |

Luckly, we love Yorkies. But if I were a St. Bernard lover, I would wonder why he couldn't come into the store and a little dog could :confused: Anyways, I have snuck Tia into a couple of stores. The sucess? The right carrier and a quiet furbaby |

It makes sense though... even if you're not allergic, would you want someone who just touched their flee infested, parasite ridden dog touching the fruits you're about to grab? I wouldn't. Grovery stores just aren't the places for dogs. I do take Ferdinand into Target though - and you're only allowed to have service animals in there. I've never gotten in any trouble by having him... even if I did get stopped I'd tell them he was my seeing eye dog or something. ;) |
