| I've never been asked to leave but whenever I go into the supercenters Jaden is in a completely concealed carrier like this one: http://www.trixieandpeanut.com/travel/127412.html I have taken him in an open tote to just a regular walmart before and I've never been asked to leave....each Walmart is different though. |

| It's not allowed due to health codes but I have snuck Gracie in several times. She's quiet and usually sleeps though.

| If you have a crate or gate, I'm sure he'd be OK at home for an hour. I understand how hard it is to leave them alone.. esp. in the beginning.

| I went to walmart when I first got max and I had someone following me out the door telling me he can't be in there that it's a health hazard which I understand but I was nowhere near the food!!! |

| My WalMart has stopped me at the door and told me "no pets allowed". First of all I don't consider him a pet. So I have sneaked, snuck, whatever several times. I have been asked to leave several places. One lady stood up for me in New Mexico and told the clerk he was my therapy dog...I'm depressed without him. |

| Hi, i have taken Sparkles into Walmart. I have been told once this was not allowed. But I have taken her in there since then as well. She is always in a carrier, which I bought at walmart. I don't think it is a big deal when they are in a carrier. Sparkles is always very quiet and she loves people. My philosophy is if they are going to sell carriers for dogs then they need to let you bring the dog in in the carrier. |

| I know some would shake a finger at me but my Teddy goes absolutly everywhere with me. If you start them early on the bags and get a good one that looks more like a purse than they will stay quiet and no one is the wiser. Today Teddy went to the Mall and to round table pizza for lunch. Never out of his bag and nobody has a clue. He goes to Walmart all the time. I have seen people walking around with more dog hair on thier clothes than Teddy will ever bring into the store in bag. If anyone was allergic they would have more of a problem with them than what's in my bag. Kim and Teddy
