If you walk through your local Publix, you may have noticed a new sign reminding customers to keep their furry friends at home if they wish to shop.
Recently, these signs have been popping up in more Publix stores, saying that pets, including emotional support animals, are not allowed to enter.
While service animals are allowed, they must be under the control of their owners and the store asked that people keep them away from carts or baskets for sanitation purposes.
I did not know that. I guess most places don’t, either, and decide to just let the animals in rather than deal with any discrimination lawsuits.
Probably. Hardware stores usually like dogs visiting.
Honestly though I think they just do it for more business.
