[nagdu] more Questions About accessing

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

Some don't know the law. Some don't care. I had a guy tell me once "This can't be a real guide dog, you're not blind". When I asked why he thought that, he said "Because you're pretty and you don't need any help".
Apparently his idea of a person who is blind and me didn't mesh.

So,  except allergies,  they say "No" and do not explain why? And other
places say " we do not want your dog in",  and not explain why? I'm just
trying to see  the  logic in their heads. Sorry may be I'm asking a stupid
question here because it may be obvious for others but I'm curious what
motivates   their denial.

> Taxi drivers usually say that the dog cannot
ride in their car or they say they are allergic to the dogs. Ethnic
restaurants usually say dogs are not allowed in the restaurant. Other places
say this from time to time as well.
