That's what I meant when I said vote with your feet, move on. A third option is tell your representative to repeal this legislation.

Vote with your feet!
 
I think they did!

Facts about Pet Ownership in the U.S.:

About 63 percent of all households in the United States have a pet. (Source: American Veterinary Medical Association)

Do the individuals that feel that not patronizing an eatery that allows dogs feel the same about seeing eye dogs and other ones that are performing a service for their owner? These dogs are no different that your everyday pets; they have fleas, smell everything and themselves smell when wet. Are you going to boycott those establishments too?

I loved Paris
 
It was so neat because in the restaurants the first thing they do is bring your dog a bowl of water. Then they take your drink order. I will never forget that wonderful experience. :coolsmiley:

Most of Europe is this way... In Germany, about the only place a dog is not welcome, is in a grocery store.

In general, Europeans are much more tolerant of their fellow man...whether it's their pets, smoking, drinking, whatever....

I'm hoping as we move down to TV in 8 weeks we see a lot of tolerance for all creatures no matter how many legs they have.

Wouldn't that be a fine thing if we were all more tolerant. That's going to be my New Years Resolution! :pray:

Not to mention that dogs lick themselves, pee, poop and you probably can't control that when they are at a restaurant. I realize that pets are part of a family but you could just leave them home for a bit while we eat. We would very much appreciate it.
:agree:

Does that mean you put your pet centipede on a leash and venture out to the restaurants? :popcorn:

BTW, aren't you closing on your home in less than 8 weeks? I thought it was in January!

I don't agree. Round Two starts. :boxing2:

Whoops, I just broke my New Year's Resolution to ignore threads that diss dogs.

More and more restaurants are allowing pets on their outside terraces and I for one love it. Today I saw a beautiful Bichon at Panera's in Market Square and no one seemed to mind. :doggie
