cases....docile, very friendly, well groomed, behaved dogs.

Nobody commenting about the dogs has even seen a dog there. ( except the supposed lady with her dog in Toojays) I question this because the story shows up every time a thread about dogs in restaurants pops up.

Us dog lovers are no more contradictory than you dog haters.

Do we really think it is a fun adventure for the dog or is it the owner that has the fun adventure and thinks it was fun for the dog too? Most of the articles seem to say the dog would be happier at home. What does the "In most cases" statement about the dogs here really means what?

Denial is not just a river in Egypt as they say. Once again dog hater being used without any reason. Seems like the so called dog lovers are the ones getting all torn up over this issue because not everyone wants to have their dogs in their face even at restaurants.

Actually there are some good topics in this link if you scroll down to the bottom that would benefit most dog owners, especially those here..
