anyway, for a buck and a half at convenience stores while I gas up, I get a 20 oz drink and emma gets a hot dog. we go somewhere she can relax without a leash and enjoy her boon.
frankly, I don't want the hassle of dog v. dog communication when there's food involved.
We just all live too close together, dearest friends. Let's go to the country and breathe some air.

I agree. I do not think I would take a dog to a restaurant but if your dog is really well behaved and you feel the need for canine companionship while dining....
My current dog Beau is too much of a beggar for food and a lap dog. He would be very confused if he was forced to choose between a lap and a piece of baked chicken. My former dog, Sport, would have been busier looking for somewhere to dig and not finding it in the concrete. Sport would be looking at the bordering plants and such for any kind of sign of a critter to dig up.
The fat cocker spaniel Amber we had would have loved this idea but she was blind and would be walking into the chairs.
Our Dalmatian, Ashes, would probably chase her tail, bite it, and spread blood all over the diners. She had done this in my car when I was coming back from Virginia Lake in Reno, Nevada and I had been very relieved to arrive home without having been stopped by some cop we thought I had some murdered body in the trunk and was the world's worst hit man with the blood still smeared all over the windows. I also do not think she could have stood still at a restaurant long enough for me to eat anything. Talk about hyperactive!
