When did it become acceptable for everyone to bring their Stew Pet dogs to the mall?
I just wanted some vegetables and chicken for dinner so I stopped at our mega mall here in San Jose and grabbed my chow at Sarko.
Yum
So, I am sitting there taking my first sip of my Diet Coke and I start to hear the whining of a little dog.
Concerned, I look around and don't see it.
Then this lady walks past me and she has two dinky dogs on a leash. I probably know the breed but, whatever.
The dinky dork dogs start whining and it occurs to me, as some dog from across the food court joined in, that someone is going to hurt if this Stew pet woman doesn't reign in her animals, making the leash a little shorter.
Several people got caught up in the leashes, as there were unaware the dinky dork stewpets had wondered 10 feet away.
Some one could have tripped and got injured and the animals themselves could have been injured as well.
So, I try to ignore this ignoramus of a woman, who must feel she is entitled to force her emptiness on the rest of us through the use of the animals.
Well, not to be out done, a few moments later I feel something hitting my calf and I quickly reach down to swat it away and found another Stew Pet Dinky Dork Dog who just had to get under my legs and the table.
I start to look around for the owner. He came by 30 seconds later and simply apologized an laughingly took the dog to some other place, so it could bother another innocent person.
Nope, a few minutes later I felt something nudging my calf again.
Looking down I again saw that little brat of a Dinky Dork Dog and again his Stew Pet owner gathered him up and apologized.
I almost verbally laid into to him but, wasn't in the mood.
Back to my meal, oh no wait.
Just a few minutes later I hear a rather large bark, seemingly from a full size dog.
I look in the direction of the bark and yep, it was a German Shepard, who was not on leash and began wondering through the crowd of people nearby.
I saw two women nearly trip avoiding this stewpet dog and they were very startled.
That dog was collected by its stewpet owner who apologized.
But, just so everyone could have a good time the 1st idiot stewpet dorky dinky dog owner thought it would a great idea if his non-sentient canine met a much larger non-sentient canine
I dunno maybe he thought they were family and wanted to reunite them.
The lil bass tards laid into each other in some sort of verbal spat I guess.
I don't speak so, I am only going by the growling and fierceness of the barking they were really not happy seeing each other and did not wish to be acquainted.
Anyway, I don't care if you bring your dog to a mall. Actually, that is a lie. I do care but, I will tolerate your lil beastard if he is well behaved, socialized and on a short leash.

Maybe they were having hot flashes because they were going through menopause :-)
I adhere to Gibbs “Rule #5” everywhere...
Yeah, well, they are gay so, you may be on to something...
ROFL!!
“Stew pet?” Is that post a Chinese rant?
I love dogs, but this crap about bringing them into restaurants, onto planes, and even into hospitals makes me want to spit in anger.
This has nothing to do with REAL service animals, which I respect and support.
It is all this idiotic fake “service animal” crap. I think people who do this are morons.
Barely seven pounds when full grown, he was a bundle of energy, smarts, and big dog attitude. No lap dog, he was fearless of everything except the vet, was rarely on a leash, and was never taken shopping or as a companion on other outings.
After all, he was needed to defend the home and yard against intruders like the mailman, squirrels, cats, possums, and even otters -- all of who he challenged with diligence and heart. In contrast, I have known of large, powerful dogs who, when intruders came, quavered and backed away or were bought off with a beefsteak.
europeans tend to bring their dogs to restaurants, including hotel restaurants.
(at least they did in the late 1960s.)
(the dogs were universally old and well behaved)
“What idiot would bring a dog into a restaurant?”
There’s certainly no shortage of those type of idiots in Florida which is striving hard to out-liberal Kalifornia.
“I think there should be more dogs at malls and restaurants.”
Ok folks, you heard it from Jayster. Bring your hard to control Shepherds, Rottweilers, etc. on kids day at the mall and watch the fun.
Nazi leaders were noted for love of their pets and for certain animals, notably apex predators like the wolf and the lion. Hitler, a vegetarian and hater of hunting, adored dogs and spent some of his final hours in the company of Blondi, whom he would take for walks outside the bunker at some danger to himself. He had a particular enthusiasm for birds and most of all for wolves. [...] Goebbels said, famously, ‘The only real friend one has in the end is the dog. . . The more I get to know the human species, the more I care for my Benno.’ Goebbels also agreed with Hitler that ‘meat eating is a perversion in our human nature,’ and that Christianity was a ‘symptom of decay’, since it did not urge vegetarianism. [...] On the one hand, monsters of cruelty towards their fellow humans; on the other, kind to animals and zealous in their interest. In their very fine essay on such contradictions, Arnold Arluke and Boria Sax offer three observations. One, as just noted, many Nazi leaders harboured affection towards animals but antipathy to humans. Hitler was given films by a maharaja which displayed animals killing people. The Führer watched with equanimity. Another film showed humans killing animals. Hitler covered his eyes and begged to be told when the slaughter was over.[29]
I might stomp a dog that tries to get cozy with me. I’m 6ft 275lb. The dog would not survive.
hott chicks love dogs, talking about dogs, and talking to dog owners.
so, get a cute dog (btw, they are called football dogs, not stew dogs), go to vasona park, and strike up some convo with hott chicks. then ask them to your pad to show them your gun collection.
they will ask you to fix their laptop. you now have them at your mercy and may now ask them to first do something for you in return.
good luck!
Djinni, the Ibizan Hound, passed away from laryngeal paralysis a few months shy of 14 years but went peacefully at home.
Gypsy, her Portuguese Podengo Medio BFF went into despair and I worried I’d lose her, too, but in the past week, she seems to have rallied and is eating again and regaining the weight she lost and is back to savagely pursuing Hrafi the boy Dobe around the yard.
Her great joy is to nip at his hamstrings and try to run him to ground, little Velociraptor that she is.
He thinks that is great good fun even though they terrify me with their mock battles, sometimes.
He [Hrafi] is fine, and has taken to howling when I leave the room, which makes me happy because one of the things I miss most about Bubby were frequent howl-fests he started with everyone else joining in...including me.
Odd thing to bring on the happy tears, but there it is.
His half sister Seven seems well, having survived a cancerous toe amputation.
As always, if they’re okay, I can cope.
/raised by “wolves”
It sounds like you’re as close to heaven on earth as you can be.

“What idiot would bring a dog into a restaurant?”
I know this large Korean family that brings dogs to the restaurant all the time....it’s weird I never see the dogs leave ;)
“Oh, I’ve got a friend who takes his pugs to restaurants all the time in a baby carriage.”
If you, your friend, the three pugs and the restaurants in question are all in the U.S., that’s a violation of Board of Health regulations. FWIW
Some of the ugly freaks have told me that they loved animals and hated mankind. I’ve asked some of them if they would like to see humans exterminated. Each one of them replied in the affirmative.
In all my years, I have never had a dog hurt me, unless it was by leaving me behind, still trapped in my mortal coil.
People...not so much.
There is, however, a passel of Dog People here on FR that are the best people in the world.
