Opinions: Wnet to have nails done and a woman walked in with her dog. Dog walked around nail salon, then sat in pedicure chair next to owner. I felt it was inappropriate to have the dog in the nail place. I have allergies so really do not want a dog in an enclosed space. Spoke to owner of salon, who apologized but did not have dog leave. Opinions of this situation [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

OP: This is exactly what I mean. Why bring a dog to a manicure place. You know you will be in there an hour, this is not a quick run into a store. I found it really obnoxious. [ Reply | More

It wouldn't bother me. I would be more concerned that the dog was inhaling fumes- no dog wants to be at a nail salon [ Reply | More

OP: Not allergic to what it in salons. Maybe you need to get over yourself and do you know what allergies are? I'm not saying I don't like dogs. I actually get sick when I am near them. You seem confused about the post, and hostile for no reason. [ Reply | More

I was on a flight back from paris last year when a woman asked if i would mind if she put her cat under my seat ! I said I was allergic and why not put the cat under her seat to which she replied that she already had another bag there. Huh ?! I suggested she put the cat in the overhead which got me a nasty look, but I couldn't believe the sense of entitlement ! [ Reply | More

I watched the mom practically make out with the dog through the little window in the carrier. The one time one of her kids came up front, she said "You're not allowed here, whatever it is can wait, go back to Nina!" On a 7 hour flight, neither went back. [ Reply | More

hate dogs in places that have "health" requirements.. Korean grocers, coffee shops, nail salons. it's bad enough that some dog owners don't clean up the dog poo on the sidewalks. hate the hair and saliva in private businesses [ Reply | More

Did said dog have a french manicure ( ballet slippers?) or just a clipping? Personally I don't care about dogs in restaurants, shops etc - our shoes walk on the same stuff their feet do. But i do think it's against the law. [ Reply | More
