I’m not a dog person, even the one dog I did have in my household is a shiba inu, which is way more cat-like than anything. I don’t have a problem with dogs in stores as long as they’re well behaved…
BUT
Don’t take your dog to a venue or bar with loud live music. Just because you’re comfortable with loud music doesn’t mean your dog is. I imagine it’s pretty hard on their much more sensitive hearing and our vet confirmed this to me.
Thats my 2¢
It’s definitely sold here in the US, and looks like something you’d find at a circus.
It’s pretty damned good, though.
