| ![]() "Dog carrying #$%&#" Yikes!! What some people will come up with? Sorry everyone had to go through that. I used to frequent the Goodwill often and it was not really the place with the best customer service. I would have been angry too. Rude people make me so mad....if they are just nice about whatever it is, then I don't have a problem, but when they have to be hateful and rude, then I get mad. Anyhow, hope you don't let them bring ya done. I always feel better after I vent too!! ![]()

| ![]() That woman is probably a very unhappy person. Try to pity her. I'm sorry you were treated that way. Personally, my dog would be easier to handle than my granddaughter in a store! When we are in Mexico, dogs can go almost anywhere! Its great!

| ![]() Here in NYC is a violation of the Health Dept code to bring an animal into any store that sells food (and restaurants, of course), unless it's a seeing eye dog. I've brought Sophie into non-food stores without a problem, but I hold her and never put her down on the floor. If I have the carrier with me, I put her in. The dry cleaner I use doesn't allow dogs in the store (personal preference, I guess), but when he saw Sophie (and I didn't have the carrier), he let me in because he thought she was so cute. So I guess cuteness can sometimes open doors! ![]() |

| ![]() First I would like to say I understand about the boyfriend ruining the jeans at work. Only mine is now my husband and he is so picky about the jeans he wears even though he is still going to ruin them. I'm so envious that your's will wear 2nd hand, it would be the best day of my life if I could get mine to. He doesn't wear 80 dollar jeans to work or anything but still. Now to the point, you know I could understand it if she had said no to all situations besides service dogs. It is a public store and they have rules to follow. But if you could carry your dog in inside a carrier why couldn't you use your purse. Its essentially the same things. Besides if the dog did mess in you purse, she could have always gotten the satisfaction of saying serves you right. I will say my friend came over with her maltese and she took him into severally places: Movie Gallery, Old Navy, Parisians, Target and probably more. She just toted him right in by the last stores she was even getting a little guttsy and would just walk in with his head poking out just so proud. Noone said anything. Next time just walk in, heck you had to deal with them anyway.

| ![]() Man I guess I was just being too nice. I really do think that she just must not have been a dog person. And I had to laugh about Goodwill not being known for good customer service..made me think to myself for a second if I actually had expected it....lol.. I suppose i just expect everyone to be curtious. It's really not that hard. I'm so glad you all are so understanding and can relate. I told some of my friends and they said, " Why didn't you just put her in the car." I guess they missed the moral of the story. Some people just don't get the love we have for our canine companions. I can't imagine my life without those goodmorning kisses and priceless moments Baby gives me everyday. Hickey007: Yeah I feel lucky Nathan (my bf) will wear 2nd hand jeans because he is miserably picky and prefers his clothing to be from Abercrombie and Fitch...which I just can not understand because it's just soo expensive...lol...I guess I'm just cheap... |

| ![]() I feel your pain! I got tossed out of Target the other day! The security guard actually hunted me down and asked to look in my bag! Well, of course, Rocky was in there and he asked me to leave, put the dog in the car and then come back to finish my shopping! HELLO! This is Arizona and it was over 100 degrees! And, I was even there to buy pet products (they do have a couple of cute puppy shirts, btw)! Maybe someone saw him poking his nose out of the puppy purse and complained...who knows! So, as he was "escorting" me out of the store, he gave me an under the breath, half apoplogy and something about health codes! It is against the law in Arizona to leave your pet in the car! I would like to give him a lesson on health codes! My response was "Hey, you get paid minimum wage to be an as* hole" and I left. Guess I won't be shopping at that store anymore! |
