Same and we don't take her the food departments and such

My dog is small enough to carry if I need to so I bring her into stores sometimes if I have to

Willow could just carry me

It only annoys me when people pet without asking, I like when people do ask though because it's good for her no jump training and socialization. It's so annoying when they don't ask though

Yes it annoys me so much, especially with Tucker.

I have a lot of different patches that I can use, including an "in training" set.
Is it illegal everywhere to use "service dog" patches on a not certified pupper?

I dont have any patches yet

I dont think its illegal, but mine are not registered service dogs and i wont be taking them into stores, until i train them to be my service dog.

My patch says service dog in training so technically I'm not saying she's a service dog, I use it to take her to Walmart or other places that don't allow dogs usally. Only 1 person gave me a problem and it was at a outdoor festival and another person at a dollar tree asked what she was being trained for and like interrogating me, he didn't work there and seemed like a creep tbh.

I wasn't gonna, and it's illegal here anyway. I was just asking if it's illegal where you all live as well. Besides, the police know me too well for me to do this

Many countries do not require any type of certificate

Ah, I see. I think it's illegal for people to ask if a dog labeled as a service dog is actually a service dog, but maybe I'm wrong.

I haven't heard of that being a law anywhere

I don't think so, at least not here, again it says thar she's in training. When she gets therapy dog certified I'm gonna switch to that, I don't think the dummies around here know the difference or care lol they'll see a red vest and be like whatever

I used to agree with the if they behave well I don't really mind but I don't any longer.

Your presence can actually be dangerous for AD/SD handlers! Not to mention it is illegal. What you are doing is not a small thing, AD/SDs are there to save lives and allow people to live an anywhere normal life, treating it as a joke and nothing important is what makes it harder to get people to understand, they are not pets ,they are auxiliary aids

Unless you have and AD/SD you won't understand how scary seeing another dog is. Many AD/SD have needed to be retired because of attacks from dogs in none pet friendly shops!

I definitely don't take AD/SD or their handlers as a joke! Please don't take it like that, I have a lot of respect for both of them as it is necessary and lifesaving work those dogs do.
Also it sounds like i take her to every place i go here but It's not very often I do take her into non pet friendly places (I've almost stopped since she's older now).

They seem to go into heat when you dont want them to

That sucks how did you first tell she was in heat? Was their like spots on furniture and stuff?
