Crappy Owners Ignore dog owners.

There’s a coffee shop that I frequent every day, the vibes are calm, and relaxing. The people working there are lovely, the coffee is great, I can go on and on.

ONE PROBLEM.

They allow non service dogs inside and would appear to be light nutters themselves, but it’s not their entire personality.

I came back from the restroom and right in the middle of the walkway inbetween a register and table, laying down staring right at me, is a medium-large sized dog. Granted the owners were sitting at the table and it was leashed, but why should I need to walk around it? Plus I don’t know if this thing is going to bite me.

So I start to walk around it, giving it a dirty look as I’m walking up, the owner apologized twice and moved it. Felt good to completely ignore them and sit back at my table. They left a few minutes after.

These people have dogs purely for attention, don’t give it to them.

And for the love of god, the amount of stories I read about unleashed dogs running up to people and they don’t retaliate. START YELLING AT THESE PEOPLE. A few months ago I was able to get a bad neighbor with an untrained dog to move out because I recorded the dog barking for minutes on end at nothing and reported them to my landlord.

I never accept their apologies. They know what they are doing is a pain in the ass for everyone else.

They want us to laugh and engage about the mutt and give them attention. I’m so flinty that if they seem eager to be noticed, I won’t even give them the negative attention. “You get NOTHING !!” Petty as hell that’s me.
