@LarryDangerfield does not follow directions.


disregard clearly marked service animals.

 

It's not crazy when you run a food service business. It's your obligation to manage that business for the entire community. And also a requirement of you as a proprietor to maintain your annual license. If you get a violation for allowing non service based dogs in your establishment you can have your license revoked.

 

here is where I stand firm.

say I'm eating in a food joint.

and you and your dog come sit next to us.

I, in no way:

know the disposition of your dog
want to sit next to a dog
want to eat next to your dog
think it's proper to eat next to a dog.

and the rub is....the folks with dogs NEVER ask the nearby folks if it's ok to sit next to them.

 

OK.

but I don't think dogs belong in eating establishments.

I guess the city inspectors think it's bad too.

"allowing" dogs in food joints is bad ju-ju to the other customers.




now, mind you, I would NEVER dime someone out. or cause a ruckus.

I would simply not transact bix there again

 

dude...Kids are a whole-nuther story. we agree on THAT.

 

I can see both sides of the question.

On the one hand, I do think there's too much of an obsession with treating dogs like humans and taking them with you everywhere you go.

On the other hand, if your dog is well behaved, I don't have an issue with it. I'd rather see more dogs and fewer people when I'm out and about.

My dog doesn't go anywhere with us, other than when I walk him obviously, because he has anxiety issues and would not do well.

 

Ages ago not many service dogs wore vests and you could tell by their behavior that they were service dogs. Or trained properly to act as though so those dogs got away with it.

In today's world a lot of people tend to think that the vest gets them through the gate. Look at united airlines and the complications they were having because of so many problems with humans claiming that their service iguana (no shit) and other service animals could fly with them. The problem lies in the vest itself and the abuse of the privilege that legitimate service animals provide.

 

Same problem though. Bad humans create bad dogs. And even worse kids.

 

you are dead on.

I consider my wife and I to be decent parents.

and when we see a bad kid...we look right at the parents.

 

I think you just called me a minority....

 

In legitimacy...


PS: an ellipsis is only 3...

 

I'm with @LarryDangerfield, I don't see why a well behaved dog can't be in an establishment that serves food.

 

That's the part of the health code, not up to the business.

 

rules is rules.....follow them or be gone.

 

I shared ice cream with my dog... from the same spoon.

 

not surprised.

 

come, on.

you NEVER wear a hat indoors.

same for military.

same for decent folks.

 

and if you see someone with a cowboy hat on indoors.....that's blasphemy.

 

I also never took her into any kind of food service location. She wasn't trained for it.

If I can ever get to the point of having another dog, I will have them trained as a service animal so they can go with me everywhere. I sorely wish I had spent more time with Stella.

 

Agree to disagree. I have no issue with a hat indoors. It affects no one but the wearer and it's their comfort.

 

You're the one who asked the question and you apparently know the rules so I assume that wasn't the point you were originally intending to make.
