They also don't serve "dog food" they serve people food that the dogs eat.

I wonder how long it will take for "plate sharer" to order a puppy meal?

Do you also avoid dining at friends' homes if they have dogs?

I encourage you to exercise your right to eat somewhere else. That will make the line shorter for me.

As you have stated before and again now....YES, there are many choices of restaurants.....so why continually discuss how "gross" you think this particular one is? Unless you have someone forcing you to eat somewhere that you don't want to....I don't see the problem....JUST DONT GO THERE!

Money seems to be part of the issue. The OP states they won't spend money to eat with dogs. Assuming their friends aren't charging I guess eating with dogs is okey dokey.

You guys responding to these dog haters need to give it up.

I googled the dog hater , this is what it said.
************************************************** *****

The typical Dog Hater has emotional problems. These folks are psychologically warped, and they will obsessively and aggressively provoke fights and retaliate against other people. They need to be in counselling, on medication, and behind bars. They are a danger to society, and have personality disorders.


This thread has ran hopelessly off course and needs to be closed.

I love horses, pigs, goats, cows, sheep, and most any other animal including dogs but there is a time and a place for everything. Agree it is useless to respond or get involved in these discussions as it goes around in the same old circles with pretty much the same posters.

A healthy affection for a pet is fine but an obsession is an entirely different story. Being joined at the hip with your pet is not a healthy place to be as noted in the article at the link below from Modern Dog Magazine. Obviously some here have gone way beyond obsession and no amount of reasoning will ever change them.

You should read the article before commenting on it. It is all about the effects on DOGS if one gives them too much attention. It has nothing to do with owners.

I have never seen anyone giving too much attention to their dog....except on television. Spending time with ones dog happens here because we are retired and have spare time.

We liked the food, but did not see any dogs.

[Wandatime]

The OP said they went and the food was good but maybe a bit pricey.

The discussion regarding this restaurant has devolved to the point where we are now beating a dead dog.

As I noted it is useless to get involved in these never ending circles...always someone wanting to contradict anything and everything...per the article it's the owner's behavior that causes and cultivates the dog's problems. Actually it is better for the dogs to leave them alone sometimes like when going out to eat.

As the saying goes, "Treat your dog like a human and he'll treat you like a dog!"

You do not sound rationale. You scare me. No one is talking about hating dogs.
