What is the story with all the dogs in every store.

Wildwood Crest - What is the story with all the dogs in every store. We have a dog and yes we treat her pretty good. We feed her healthy food, take her for walks, and treat her like she’s one of the family, which she is. But why would we take her to a store? It’s out of control and the store mangers don’t have the guts to politely say to the owner, sorry we love dogs but they can not come into our store. I did just have another thought, perhaps our dog is just plain stupid and never trained to ask us ,,, hey take me to Lowe’s or Home Depot today. How do these dog owners teach their dog to ask?
