I will take a dog in a store over most humans I witness these days...

I was thinking the same thing! Bring on the dogs

Pretty sure WalMart isn't one of them, in which case that dog should have been left at home or leashed outside on the hitching post. Putting it in a baby stroller does not make it a baby.

I‘m not familiar with Walmart’s policy regarding dogs. I rarely shop there. My point stands though, there are chains and mom and pop stores that do allow dogs regardless of how others feel about it.

Amen. A lot cleaner than most humans in my store and less likely to get me sick.

Sure, yes, I agree there are. But the OP's example is in a WalMart (as per her post) where animals, other than service animals, are not permitted.

Wow some people are so Grinchy lol... Or maybe its Lucy Van Pelt, `A dog! Get some hot water! Get some disinfectant! Get some iodine!`

Cute dog btw

The dog is very cute but honestly had no business being at Walmart or any store that sells food.

Very cute!

I'm largely indifferent to animals; I don't hate them. I do find people who feel entitled to break rules obnoxious though. I doubt too many people here would be cooing over a "cute" picture of an "adorable" child climbing over the railings at WDW to pet the ducks.

How exactly does a dog in a carrier, basket, etc., cause issues with the food? He does not touch the food or walk anywhere near the food, while all sorts of human hands touch the food. And we all know how dirty our hands can be.

I love when I see cute dogs in stores. Brightens up my day! I keep my son‘s frenchie a good bit, and he does go into stores where he is allowed. He will have a huge crowd of people around him, just wanting to pet him. He just adores all the attention.

Because most health departments prohibit animals in places that sell food. That includes grocery stores, Walmart’s, Targets, the hardware store, etc as well as restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops etc.

No worse than the people who insist their dog is their baby

What if it was some kind of service dog? I mean honestly how would you really know?

Pretty sure service dogs don’t ride around in strollers. How can they be watching for signs of a seizure or a drop in blood sugar when they are being pushed in front of their person?

 

[LSUmiss]

The doggie is adorable. And I have seen more disgustingly dirty humans in stores and restaurants than I have dogs.

Lol! Yeah remember Covid? It wasn’t dogs spreading it to ppl!

What type of service dog would ride in a stroller? What service would this dog provide? And for the record emotional support animals do not qualify under ADA.

Dog people are a weird breed. LOL I get that everyone loves their pets, I love my kitty cats. But admit it, you all would be looking at me like I was a nut job if I went around pushing my cats in a stroller and bringing them into the store with me. Or if someone with any other animal other than a dog did that. What bothers people the most is those who blatantly disregard the rules. If no dogs are allowed, that means yours too. Now if the business allows it, and it is clearly posted, then that is fine because people are forewarned. If I could get dog people to understand one thing is that not everyone loves your dog like you love your dog. That's it.

It doesn’t have to be one or the other. People can be gross, and so can dogs.

Not a huge fan of animals at indoor public places

I feel the same.
