We were at the square on this same night with our dog. We were there early and sat down next to a couple. The man snorted, guess we will have to move because of the dog. I asked him if he was allergic or just a crumudgon who didn't like dogs. He replied that he felt dogs should not be brought to public places. I replied that I would move if he were allergic but since that was not the problem I would stay and I was certain he would find our dog more well behaved than most children in the square. Gosh, I hope the snake guy sat down next to him when we left.
