This culture with dogs and animals have reached nonsense proportions. It has gone to the other extreme, and it needs to be reigned back in. I was in an elevator, and some guy brought his dog to work, or something. I was surprised that I might have flinched, said WTF, and the dog flinched, and growled. At that moment I thought the dog was going to attack me, or the others in the small elevator cabin. And this was a medium to large sized dog, that was also beyond the owner’s ability to easily control. And I see more often now, people walking their bulldogs, as if they are nice and friendly pets. They are not. They are vicious attack animals. These dogs are not professionally trained. There is no certification that can guarantee that the dogs are safe to the public. And the owners are typically incompetent and irresponsible morons that shouldn’t have a dog to begin with. And there are those idiots that brings their large dogs into department stores, and walks them around as if it’s perfectly ok. It’s absolutely abnormal to be shopping at a Target, and to have to avoid some idiot’s large dog. It’s also irritating to walk through a store like Nordstrom Rack, where people bring their small dogs into the store, and let them sit inside the cart. There’s nothing worse than placing your new clothes into a shopping cart soiled by a dog’s urine or poop. But I digress, Nordstrom Rack must have a policy to allow these people that privilege to bring in their small dogs. I try to avoid the place if I can, because of this. I’ll vote with my wallet. I’m all for letting people have service animals, if they are blind, or physically handicapped. At least those service animals are professionally trained (or at least I hope there is a valid certification for that). But for all others with their supposedly “emotional support animals”, then they are just abusing the system, and taking advantage of the good graces of others. It is only a matter of time before one of these dogs violently acts out and attacks someone or a child in public. What will it take to outlaw this? Do we have to wait until one of these dogs kills a child in order to ban them?
