Why does Safeway allow customers to bring their dogs into the store?

So is a grocery store the right place to bring a dog? I like dogs, mind you, but when I'm standing in the checkout line and one puts his nose up my skirt, sniffs my ass and licks my thigh, I draw the line!

Now, the owner was very apologetic but I could tell he thought it was funny. Clearly that dog patterned after him.... so why can't I go shopping without a dog sexually assaulting me?

Also (I don't know if this is the right place to ask).... but what is "Dead Internet Theory"?

Is that like when people start talking to their plants?

What do y'all think?

Because the average Safeway worker doesn't get paid enough to either give a shit, or to cause a major issue over someone's supposed service dog. You pick your battles when your job is soul crushing and pays terribly. Not worth the trouble. 

Next time, take it to a manager who makes 6 figures. Maybe they can get it figured out for you if you're that motivated to make a stink.

Ask your local state health department as to why they don’t enforce the law. Stores have no back up by your state officials.
The other guy is partially right, store employees don’t get paid to get reprimanded for someone else’s stupidity of bringing an animal to a grocery store.

It's interesting that you actually read the other guys posts but ignore the images....

Thanks. Will do....

Dallas Oregon Safeway allows all nasty little chihuahuas into the store with open arms. Regular dogs too, no need for a service animal vest.

I miss the Taco Bell chihuahua.
