That people like dogs I can understand, what I fail to comprehend is why they have to have them with them at all times. There is a time and a place for everything and dogs and pubs to my mind ought to be separate.

My face is scarred from a Labrador attack when I was four or five which has obviously tainted my attitude to dogs as have later bites and nips.

Leave the thing at home if you must keep one, not everyone appreciates their presence.
