Only some stores allow dogs here around TV. Do they not allow dogs in NC PetCo's and the like? :dontknow:

We are moving in the European direction. In Europe dogs are allowed just about everywhere, including restaurants, stores, etc. Works fine and I enjoy having them around. But also, in Europe they are required to be under control and trained. In Germany, 3 strikes (3 episodes of bad behavior) and they take your dog away. All dogs I have seen over there are very well behaved.

Yes I really liked the fact that dogs are allowed everywhere in Europe but now I'm liking that they are welcome in some stores in TV!

I know most major department stores allow small dogs in California. It seems the same rule seems to apply in many stores here. Some, like Nordstrom's even allow large dogs. I used to take my Old English with me in there all the time. That dog had better taste and could sniff out a good deal better than I could (and I'm inherently cheap)!
