We had someone who claimed her dog was a service dog (her psychiatrist told her to keep the dog with her) come to a rally. She carried it in a sling and the dog hung over the food line. We were all REALLY unhappy about that. But research into the laws showed us, we can not tell her not to bring the dog and we could not ask her if the dog was really a service dog. This type of thing is getting out of hand. We all believe the dog over the food was a violation of our rights but what can you do? Fortunately she no longer comes to rallies but I do think that when my safety and food issues are concerned I have a right to ask the person to keep the dog away from me and my and other people’s food. Hope you don’t have these issues at your rally.

One family who always attended a spring rally we organized brought their German Shepherd to the pot luck inside the building. They were outraged when told to take her out. Now she leaves hateful comments on my blog so much I have to moderate the comments. She has taken it upon her vindictive self to start threads on forums I frequent dissing things I say and do on MY blog. I can’t believe this person is an adult, but most of the time, it is the alcohol talking anyway. After 7 years, we quit doing the rally because I refused to exclude anyone and didn’t want them to come ruin our rally.

Wouldn’t it be so much better in this world if people would channel their love and $ to their fellow humane.
I see people talking to animals as if they think the animal understands the conversation, even to the point that the couple talks through the dog, but don’t talk directly to each other.
If the $’s spent on pets could be used to help our fellow human it would be a better world, and we wouldn’t need all of the different charities in the country.
Also remember your pet isn’t going to heaven as it doesn’t have a soul!

I agree, Nick. I get so tired of idiot people carrying those little rag mop dogs into stores, churches, even restaurants! Last week I was in the post office and the woman in front of me had a little mutt in a sling over her shoulder. Every time I moved it snarled and yapped at me. I finally asked her to pull it down in front of her and away from me, and she went off. She screamed and yelled, called me all kinds of names, and finally the postmaster came out of his office and told her to take the dog outside. Then she went off on him too! By then everybody in line was yelling and telling her to leave or they would call the police. What a scene, all because some dimwit wouldn’t leave her mutt at home or in the car.

That is our new Phoenix O.A.K. !!! We love it. Michele and her group did an excellent job of rejuvenating our tired 2000 motorhome. Now is the time to have work done, We left Phoenix Paint with a complete new exterior. New slide out awning and patio awning. And the Shine. WOW! Everyone is asking us when we bought the new motorhome. GREAT GROUP to work with. Just can’t say enough good things about our experience with Michele and her group. Feel free to email us about our motorhome at eeeisen@aol.com.
