[nagdu] Dog Massage at NAGDU Seminar

[Ann Edie]

Cari, if Mona and Cali did come to visit you for a day, you might be 
surprised to find that Mona and Cali would have no access issues, while you 
and your dog still faced the same denial of access as usual!  I'm not saying 
that this is right or fair, of course, just saying that in my experience, 
some store managers are more tickled to have a little horse in their 
establishments than they ever were to have a dog there, even if it was a 
trained service dog.

Best,
Ann
