I was in a fairly upscale restaurant last year when a dog wandered in

off the street and started meandering about the restaurant. I looked for a waitress to inform her of the dog. She responded, “oh, that is Jack, he won’t bother you”. Like heck he won’t. His presence bothered me. I guess dogs are on in restaurants in small west Texas towns.

Are you sure you aren't confusing service animals with ESAs? Service animals are trained to perform specific tasks.

Service Dogs are all business. They are the best trained dogs on the planet.

I'd rather have well-behaved animals than badly behaved people.

Not sure a 'yelping' and 'barking' puppy qualifies as 'well behaved'

ManicBlue

I'm sure it doesn't qualify.

9/18/19 1:05pm

Why tolerate either?

Because a clean well-behaved animal doesn't bother me. There's really nothing to

No such thing as a "clean" animal...

Interesting. Is there such thing as a clean human?

Badly behaved people bring well behaved animals into a restaurant.

It’s bad in Florida where I live among seniors. Everything is “pet friendly”.

Just to be clear, who was wearing the U shorts - the guy, the son, or the dog?
