Djean1981, your comment was very well put. We had a Toy Poodle but when she died we decide not to get another pet because I didn’t feel we were fair to the dog to board her or ask family to watch her, so we didn’t get another pet. You were right about you don’t ask a store employee to clean up after your pet, who cleans up after their pet at home or do they just leave it lie like maybe they do at home. Employees aren’t being paid to clean up after dogs. That terribly unsanitary! Some people don’t love your pet or they would have one. Leave them at home, they’ll be alright until you get home.
