Amen...I couldn't agree more. I have yet to be bothered by animal in a public. They make people feel good and smile. I look forward to taking my pet everywhere. It socials her and teaches her how to behave in public.🐶💕🐶💕

I think it's a Long Island thing----our pets are a form of escapism from the reality of the daily rat race---unless you live in Southhampton

Good for you 😊 Take her everywhere that you can legally take her and you should have no problems.

I've never had an issue with a dog in the public either. Only one time, I had a problem with the owner of a pup who took the dog into Golden Coral (claiming a service dog), and constantly threw food under the table for the obese dog. This was absolutely not a service dog as it was hyper, not behaving. The management was afraid to do much except watch....I had words with her though. Too bad the few try to ruin it for the legitimate.

Kind of makes sense---bring an obese dog to an all you can eat buffet--saves on dog food as well. What was your estimate of the OWNER'S weight?????

I'm just thankful I don't need one.

That is funny, of course we do. Anyone with a sense of humor so far out...

I don't judge humans on weight.

The dog was being abused by feeding it human food. She was throwing fried chicken on the floor for the dog.

Bringing any dog, other than a legitimate Seeing Eye or Service Dog to an all you can eat Buffet, or any other Restaurant is in and of itself rather disgusting. Fat owners tend to waste more food at buffets than skinny ones. Only difference is that they don't usually eat it off the floor. Sorry, don't mean to offend in case you are excessively overweight.

I certainly don't judge people that way either. I was trying to play off the age old concept that dogs and their owners start to look alike. Oh, well, epic fail---sorry

No problem.

I get what you were saying.

I am dangerously close to agreeing with you----is this a blue moon?

About 80% agree---but since I love dogs I wouldn't mind a small, cute, well behaved dog---some here have posted they're better than most children. But if I were allergic to dogs I might feel differently

No idea if true or not, but the term overweight might be more appropriate than "fat"---so give that one a 50% agree

Only difference is that they don't usually eat it off the floor.

99.5% agree----I'm sure there is an occasional exception

Sorry, don't mean to offend in case you are excessively overweight

agree 100%, nice conditional

So overall, giving equal weighting to 4 sentences, looks like a 82.375% agree---quite an improvement

Now look at the bright side---the dog was on the floor---he could have sat him at the table and given him a plate

You are right about taking dogs to restaurants. This dog was in no way a service dog. I was actually the only one who spoke up. I felt bad for the pup.

I didn't know that statistic about who wastes the most food. Interesting.

I'm not even 1 ounce overweight......and we are completely off topic.

That's great--good for you

And it's really not that far off topic---the OP was questioning whether a dog in a pharmacy was truly a service dog---no different than your restaurant experience. Besides, half the time the off topic posts are better than those addressing the OP

Thanks for the high grades. Would never find myself in that situation since I wouldn't set foot into a Golden Corral to eat the swill they call food. Maybe overstated, but you get the idea that I wouldn't go there.
