[nagdu] always taking the dog was guide dogs

[Buddy Brannan]

Where you should not take your guide dog is a very personal and individual thing. Some dogs don't handle situations that others would breeze through. I, for instance, wouldn't take Chet to the zoo (except I did once, by accident, yes really) because he is very critter-distracted. I also wouldn't take either of my dogs to amusement parks or the state fair because of scavenging tendencies (Chet's a typical labby one and Karl very much on the sly). Others may have no problem taking their dogs to these kinds of things. Similarly, I wouldn't take my dog to the movies, because, well, theater floors are just gross.

>>> Have any of you had people tell you that you can't take your dog with you? Well I was talking to my grandma one night, and she asked me what I would do when my mom and I went to the store or something.  I told her that I would take the dog with me.  She said, what if you and your mom want to go to the store by your self.  I think that it is crazy how some people think that the dog gets in the way.
