I know exacally what she is tring to say, She is talking about Home Depot not allowing animals to come in to the store any more.
The poster said she was born and raised in the USA. If she were born elsewhere and in the process of learning English, I'd agree with you. However since she was born and raised in the USA, I am completely with Dixieland_Dancer. I type fast too, but I still relay my thoughts to all of you so that you can understand what I'm saying.

On topic... Pets around here are not allowed anywhere but in pet stores. While it would be nice to be able to take Samantha anywhere I go, I understand why stores have rules about them. There are medical reasons (allergies, etc.) that stores must take into consideration to make all their patrons (the PEOPLE who spend money in their store) comfortable. Like it or not, not all people love animals and they shouldn't be made to deal with them in a place that animals really have no business being. (Now if someone went to PetSmart and complained about the animals in there... tough - that is an animal place.)

And there is a difference between children and pets. As much as some people may not like children, I have yet to see anyone claim an allergy to them. If Home Depot does not want to allow pets in their stores, it is their prerogative and I support it. If I were to open up a non-pet related store myself, I probably wouldn't allow animals in it and I'm one of the biggest animal advocates there is.
