In one of my previous apartments I used to frequent a particular, locally owned, quickie-type market. Occasionally, I would bring my dog. They had no problem with me bringing him into the store while I carried him. In fact, he became a bit of a celebrity because the clerks would point us out when we came in, saying "that's the dog I was telling you about, a basenji" to other customers. I had the experience of a bit of teaching about the breed. many were appreciative, some were just jerks because "they were 'real men' and they had to have a "real" dog" UUGGHH! So what's a "real dog'? Made me angry but it was a 'quickie-mart' - how angry could I get?
Happy dog story, non b

Oh WOW Sharron,
Thank you so much for sharing that article. I am trying not to ball out loud at work. It truly is amazing what animals can do for us, yet another reason to advocate for good lives for all animals out there. -
While you try not to, I am miserably failing at the same thing. I am literally sobbing in my cubicle. Really great story.
