Eat out at a place that doesn't allow dogs?......

Wetherspoons don't allow dogs. Not even in their gardens.

MadamCholetsbonnet · 19/04/2025 20:04

@Charlize43 what should be banned? Dogs? 😂

Business owners will cater for whoever will maximise their profits. If that’s dog owners and people who like seeing dogs when they’re out, then that’s going to be the norm.

You flouncing off isn’t going to change that. And dog haters are a minority so you are stuck with Wetherspoons and wherever else you can find.

Why would people stop taking dogs into places were the owners of the business welcome dogs?

Because it’s ruining it for everyone else?

Would you like my three screaming children sitting next to you in a cosy dinner service? Technically there’s nothing stopping me taking them, but I don’t so as not to ruin other people’s meals.

Would you like me to park so close to your drivers door that you can’t get in or out that side? Because technically I can, but I choose to leave ample space to be considerate.

There are LOTS of things we do just to be kind. Leaving your dog at home whilst you eat out is good manners, appreciative of those who are petrified (like my daughter who was nearly mauled by a dog), those with allergies, and those who find it u hygienic.

If you can’t see that, then I hope you’re not afforded good manners by other people. It goes both ways.

No, the holiday is for my dog as well as me. She loves beaches and it will sadly be her last holiday as she is old and her time with me is coming to an end.

I hope you enjoy your holiday with your lovely dog. I’m taking mine to Norfolk too in a few weeks.

I think that post from OP just proves the kind of person she is.

I wonder if she would be this gobby face to face?? Maybe she is and the problem is that she's been banned from all the dog friendly places for wishing the dogs dead.

ToKittyornottoKitty · 19/04/2025 20:07

Dreamingi · 19/04/2025 20:05

No
are you?

Then maybe you should be! You need help of some kind anyway

It is not entitled to take your dog somewhere that allows dogs.
Stamping your feet about it though... is.

I know, some of these posters are ridiculous. They’re probably the type of parents who send nuts into schools regardless of allergies, because they can.

You dislike businesses that allow things you don't think they should. That's many things, because there's many businesses.

If you don't want to go somewhere there might be dog hair, stay home. A dog might walk by you and shake their hair onto you if you venture out.

You sound so silly ..
I like dogs , I have a dog 🤷🏻‍♀️, she’s part of the family , we go to the park , the beach .
We don’t bring her to restaurants to eat though ..
I wouldn’t like to be dining out surrounded by dogs ! ! !
Anyway, people differ in opinions, you’re entitled to yours , I’m entitled to mine ..
OP came on here & said she doesn’t like dogs in restaurants & straight away called a dog hater 🙄 ! ! ..
She didn’t say she hated dogs , she doesn’t like them in restaurants, i’m the same 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

It really is

but shhh you will upset the Dogstapo

Your use of gestapo is offensive. You should have a word with yourself.
