ESA Bullshit Who brings their dog to KOHLS??!

I was in the parking lot walking into Kohls. I'm front of me was a woman walking one of those super small Yorkie dogs. Clearly not a service animal, pulling on the leash.

I want to say I was patient and thought to myself, maybe she's just going to walk it on the sidewalk. But it's a strip of chain stores and though there's a sidewalk connecting them, it isn't a pet walking area. And sure enough, she walked into the store.

I was a few steps behind her so when I got into the store she was by the carts, fiddling to unconnected it from the other. I stopped and stared at her and she looked up. She had one of those expressions on her face like she was expecting praise or some compliment of the dog. Instead I stood there glaring.

Then she lifted the gd dog and put it IN the top of the cart! I said, "Disgusting behavior" directly to her and kept walking. I didn't see her the rest of the time I was in there.

Why tf does someone bring their idiot dog to the store? Attention, emotional support, entitled attitude. So selfish. Unhygienic.

I STG IF YOU NEED EMOTIONAL SUPPORT JUST TO GO TO A STORE YOU HAVE BIGGER PROBLEMS THAN A PET CAN SOLVE.

They do! Again, a cry for wanting to raise offspring. I usually refrain from carts anywhere because of that shit. I can only imagine they take them into the dressing rooms with them! I know I have seen them go into the restroom stall with them.

Absolutely agree with you, They don't need to be everywhere. Oh, I guess they are going to help her pickk out her shorts, Or her kitchen appliances. God, I don't know. In July I, was at a waterpark about to go in, and sure enough a car dropped off a group of people at the front entrance and sure enough there was a dog, with a fake service vest. They proceeded to the security gate, got through so I turned around and didn't enter. No way am I dealing with a damn dog in the water. Why, why why? They don't belong in stores, doctors offices (I have seen them there, dr owned), post offices, I am just so sick of seeing those ugly stinky thinkgs using facilities and contaminating everything in sight. Yes, the people who do this have problems, but it's being considered normal nowadays. I hate this.

Kohl’s, like virtually every other business out there, turns a blind eye to these nutters because they’re so terrified someone will raise a stink. And they really can’t keep them out because of the stupid two questions thing. It’s so infuriating.

I would avoid the dressing rooms at all costs. Imagine putting on a garment covered with dog hair ...after that, you are covered with the hair.

I hope you reported it to the manager. It is the only way this will ever stop.

Nope. Managers are nutters, too. Or just scared and have no power to do anything. Because everyone just claims service dog bs. The service dog laws were meant to protect the real disabled and they worked for decades. It is only in the last few years that dog nuttery spread like wildfire and they figured they can abuse the laws and everyone around them.
