This is all kind of retarded cause no one is arguing that its right to take a dog where one doesn't belong, if the store is pet friendly like some non pet stores are, then thats wonderful.

I think its just not right to see people arguing about being able to fully socialize their pets at home and thats good enough. It may be for you, but not everyone. Some of us would like our pets to be able to be out walking the town, even if its not in stores, that takes more socialization for a dog to be completely comfortable in any setting.
