Tying your dog outside at Panera’s was not a good idea. Dogs should not be left unattended. The man was right in chastising you

Geeze. Don't tie your dog anywhere for any reason, for any amount of time, and leave him unattended. Just... geeze. What the heck are people thinking.

Yesterday was inside eating at recently opens new restaurant. Lady walked down the isle between tables/booths pushing baby carriage with two small dogs inside. The dogs was well mannered, but I could tell they were stressed. What I don't understand why would you drag the dogs and carriage to go out and eat inside restaurants? Maybe I don't understand why my pets has to go everywhere I go?

That’s what we do they are safer at home whether we be up the road from Wistah in the Providence area or in the Villages.

When I see people walking their dogs on the hot pavement I ask them if they would walk barefoot on the same hot surface.... Some people just don't get it.

I absolutely agree. Dogs should never be tied up and left unattended.

If people trained their dogs properly, you would not have to tie them outside any shop. My old dogs were trained to 'stay' and thats all I had to say when I needed to shop.
Could leave them anywhere, in shade on hot days, over warm grills on cold, and they would not move. Forgot I had one of them one day, and nearly got home before I rememberd. Still waiting when I got back, but he did give me the WTF!
As for restaurants, no dogs apart from seeing eye.
Different times now, to many busybodies, and special people.

There was a young couple visiting our town who had a Labrador Retriever. They wanted to take a jog on the Lake Michigan beach, so they leashed him to the end of the boardwalk, and off they went. When they got back, someone had taken him. They never did find him.

I would not leave my dog anywhere unattended, regardless of how well he was trained.
