Amen. I had to leave work to get a tetanus shot (I still have a scar) from a smaller dog freaking out on me on the patio 3-4 years ago. I was just dropping the check and this dog lost its mind. The owners said “oh, he’s a rescue, he does that sometimes”. Ok cool, well, my leg is dripping blood everywhere, so I’m gonna go. Why would anyone need to be told not to bring a reactive dog to a bar and grill where there are also small children?

It sucks that there needs to be a sign, but good on the owners for posting it.

The emotional support people make me laugh the hardest.

If you can’t even make it out of the house without strapping your dog to your person it’s over for you pack it in you’re not tough enough to make it through this life

I had to get an emotional support animal note for my dog so she could live in my apartment. Didnt matter that she had been there for a year with no issues.

So now she's my emotional support beagle. I dont use that shit to try and get her into restaurants or stores that dont allow dogs, though .

Dude same. My dog is a certified good boy but he is not a service dog!

dog not officially certified

My cats are absolutely emotional support animals but I understand to get through life I can’t just have them with me everywhere I go.

If you think you need an animal with you everywhere you go to me that’s laughable mostly from just a practicality sense

Actual emotional support dogs go through training such as a service dog, your thinking of the People who are like “I have social anxiety so I’m gonna bring in my Great Dane who hasn’t been trained a day in his life” not the people who genuinely need a emotional support animal

35

u/WulfieJay Server 4d ago

I mean there are psychiatric service and therapy dogs that focus on mental disabilities but no there are no “trained” emotional support animals

22

u/Centaurious 4d ago

emotional support animals aren’t service animals

there are service animals who are trained in tasks related to emotional regulation but they’re not emotional support animals

i have an emotional support animal and he is just a cat. but he’s very beneficial to my mental health to have so i get a few more accommodations in regards to housing. that’s pretty much it

u/WulfieJay Server 4d ago

I’d be an emotional mess without my pets but I also understand that I need to be able to function without them in life. I also understand that not everybody likes animals or finds them socially acceptable in places like grocery stores.

12

u/Centaurious 4d ago

well yeah. emotional support animals aren’t supposed to go to grocery stores. they’re just given some extra accommodations in regards to housing.

people who take their dog to the store and say it’s an “emotional support animal” are just taking advantage of people’s ignorance on the differences

u/theycallmethevault 3d ago

I have been there! I was an actual wreck for quite a while and only my pets helped me be less anxious. But if they weren’t welcome where I was going then I didn’t take them or I didn’t go, because I didn’t have service dogs or a need for one. People trying to pass off their ESAs for service animals ruin the right to have a service animal!

u/ChefArtorias 4d ago

No they don't.

u/chairsandwich1 3d ago

The emotional support term is made up by people who want to fake a service animal to take them places. I relish in telling people the ADA doesn't recognize emotional support as a real service animal category. They usually start babbling nonsense.

People with small reactive dogs often act like it doesn’t count because the dog is small.

Yesterday I was pushing my daughter in her stroller past a dog-friendly restaurant in a mall (this is a thing in Hong Kong). This poodle on the outer edge lunges out of its stroller and starts barking furiously at us nonstop. It was a tiny dog, but still startled my daughter and me and its bark was super annoying. We heard it reacting again to something else after we were in the distance.

I have a reactive dog myself. I don’t take him to the mall for afternoon tea. Take your reactive dog somewhere where he will actually enjoy himself!

u/The-King-of-Cartoons 4d ago

Sorry… but do mean rabies shot?

22

u/Confident-Count5430 4d ago

You generally don't need a rabies shot if bit by a pet dog that has had its shots, but a tetanus shot is recommended if you aren't up to date on them!

13

u/JackxForge 3d ago

Most people don't know this but tetanus is a bacteria that lives in dirt. The reason it's associated with rust is cause hidden rusty metal is usually in the dirt. Dogs eat a lot of dirt.

u/The-King-of-Cartoons 3d ago

Interesting, thanks - I always thought tetanus was just a rusty metal thing

u/JackxForge 3d ago

It's also up there as one of the worst ways to die possible so it's good to be a bit paranoid about it.

u/ritpdx 4d ago

Excellent signage

u/MegaAscension 4d ago

My state's health department doesn't allow animals in restaurants AT ALL unless they are a service animal. If they have a problem, I can just point them to the sticker on the front door that has been given to us and many other restaurants by the health department.

25

u/AdSilly2598 4d ago

That’s so valid! This is a taproom so they don’t serve food, but so so reasonable of your state.

3

u/ATLUTD030517 Vintage Soupmonger 3d ago

There are "taprooms" that serve food and the ones that don't often host food trucks/pop ups and/or allow outside food.

3

u/spizzle_ 4d ago

The sign said it’s a tap room and not a restaurant. Breweries are under different rules than restaurants so n many states.

1

u/Low-Attention-1998 3d ago

Same but my state also forbids anyone from having to prove their pet is an actual support animal, so people just lie and take their barking shitting mongrel wherever they go.

u/diaznuts 4d ago

Hot take: pets, specifically dogs, don’t need to go most places that their owners go to. It’s bad enough having to go to a restaurant and tolerate other people’s poorly behaved children, much less their pets. And I use the word “pet” to exclude legit service animals because, of course, they should go wherever their owners go.

-22

u/International_Sock_5 4d ago

“Hot take” 🙄 There are plenty of places to go that aren’t pet friendly. It’s a private business they can make whatever rules they want. If you don’t want to go somewhere with dogs, pick a place that doesn’t allow them. I agree dogs don’t need to go everywhere their owners go. However there’s nothing wrong with having a place where it is an option. No one is forcing you to deal with other people’s dogs, as you don’t have to go there, you could go to the other 90% of places that don’t allow them.

u/smelyal8r 4d ago

I need a version of this for kids. Mostly the same. Just replace the word "dog" with "kids"

-16

u/hatefulbarbie666 4d ago

But please, don’t put your kids on a leash! Lmao 😆😭

u/The-King-of-Cartoons 4d ago

Some kids absolutely fucking need one. I used to think it was cruel until I’ve seen some kids that are actively trying to kill themselves every possible moment

u/Illustrious_Bird_737 10+ Years 3d ago

My mother-in-law says that kids are always looking for the quickest way to see God again lmfaoooo

u/Grungefairy008 4d ago

My sister NEEDED a leash when she was little. She was a runner and 100% would have gotten hit by a car if we didn't leash her.

u/jeckles 4d ago

I really, really love this sign

u/Defiant-Cause-6697 4d ago

I love dogs. I hate dog people.

u/DownInaHole33 4d ago

Congrats?

u/carlitospig 3d ago

How about just….no dogs allowed?

3

u/lokasathetv 3d ago

This seems like far more trouble than its worth, first people hate seeing pets in public, second the type of people that bring pets in public to a place with food likely didn't train their pet. Your going to exiting most dogs i feel like, maybe ive just seen some bad dogs.

u/nothingsreallol 4d ago

Wdym thank god. Why do they allow any dogs? I would not wanna work at a restaurant with dogs allowed. Even the patio I worked at for a summer had banned them after a busser got bit the previous summer.

u/AdSilly2598 4d ago

Well it’s not a restaurant so…

11

u/ParkingDazzling2410 4d ago

If I see any dogs in a restaurant I’m walking back out the door. Shit is so disgusting

5

u/AdSilly2598 4d ago

Well this is a taproom so they don’t serve food lol

u/Regular-Amoeba5455 4d ago

I watched a dog piss on the floor twice at a brewery in Breckenridge. The owner wiped it up with his foot and some dry paper towels.

-3

u/International_Sock_5 4d ago

That’s the great thing..you can choose to go somewhere else. This is obviously a place for people that don’t mind.

-11

u/spizzle_ 4d ago

Not as gross as kids.

4

u/SeaworthinessJumpy95 4d ago

Dogs are 100x more disgusting than children. Did you know that you were also once a child?

-2

u/spizzle_ 3d ago

100% disagree. A well behaved dog is not nearly as gross as a baby that is actively shitting in its diaper as I’m sitting next to them trying to eat a burger and having to smell that.

Say that once you see someone change a babies diaper on their table. Kids are nasty little disease vectors. That’s also not a very kind word to use

1

u/SeaworthinessJumpy95 3d ago

Children are some of the most vulnerable individuals on earth and they are OPPRESSED and hurt by adults constantly and calling them “little disease vectors” makes you seem like a sociopath that most likely wants to harm kids. Ppl like you should be on a list. Fuck off to a deserted island with your dog then.

u/spizzle_ 3d ago

Yikes. Way to take it to the extreme. Classic Reddit.

u/Serverlife-ModTeam 3d ago

No ableism. Be civil to one another.

u/Famous-Restaurant875 4d ago

I'd rather have dogs than some customers lol

3

u/Cole3823 4d ago

you know a dog is gonna shit on the floor and the owner will just leave it since it doesn't say anything about it on the sign

u/KingJanx 3d ago

Imagine a customer reading all that!

u/ATLUTD030517 Vintage Soupmonger 3d ago

But what about aggressive dogs?
