It'd actually be really cool, but I'd think if the GTG was at a restaurant-type venue there'd be some health law issues to deal with .... |

For example, I would never bring my beagles, Trouser and Rex, to a GTG. They are sweet dogs but experience the world thru their noses so they'd sniff everything and everybody before they found a place to lay down. Then the snoring would begin. I think you just have to use common sense. If the pet would be at all disruptive or diminish the human guests' experience in any way then leave them at home. Same goes for kids. In my case, my teenage son would outplay me on anything he picked up so he would have to stay in the car... windows cracked, of course.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Raleigh, NC | | | as much as I love my pets, no one should bring theirs without offering their credit card upon entry. I've just seen too many 'ohhh, he's never done this before' instances.
And also, some people are very responsible pet owners and have very nice animals, but not all of us are like that. What is worse is that the people who don't have very nice pets, are sometimes completely clueless on how out of control their pets can be. |

I agree. In fact, I think it would even be cruel to the animals. |
