Do you think dogs should be allowed in a grocery store?
No….I don’t believe dogs should be brought
to grocery stores!

You should read Doctor Dogs by Maria Goodavage. Dogs are trained to detect diabetic attacks and epileptic seizures to name only 2.

Riiight... My post, commenting on starting a new thread when a thread EXACTLY like it was closed just a day or two ago is the same as your's stating this:

"Personally, keep your dirty creatures out of the food store. The manager needs to man up and tell the miscreant they arent welcome in the store with their mangy mutt."

Nice rationalization...

[QUOTE=Dotneko;2245399]Why, thank you for checking on me! My words appear to track just fine, though, so I think I am good. And you appear to have regained your mastery of the English language too! Good news all around. Seriously you were uncharacteristically butchering your sentences - forgive me for being concerned. It wont happen again.[/

I rest my case.

My sympathy to those who truly have no choice but to rely solely upon dogs, but other than truly professionals trained medically certified service dogs should not be allowed in grocery stores or restaurants. Imho.

Keep the dogs home. They are probably thinking to themselves “ … finally some peace and quiet.”

Supposedly there are laws that prohibit animals in places where food is sold or prepared. There are also laws that require such businesses to allow service animals. I would think that management could approach someone trying to bring an animal / pet into their business and ask them to remove the animal or they will call the police to have them removed.

Why is there reluctance to involve law enforcement?
