i have seen on many occasions

dogs waiting for their owners either tied

to a pole or inside cars in shopping car

parks.

so it appears that ppl do take their dogs

shopping with them, they will now have

the option of not leaving them outside.

If Bunnings adopt this policy in Vic,  I will be going to Masters.

didn't the incident happen in Vic?

Maybe there should be a policy that dogs should be muzzled on a lead? 

from the OP:

In response to News.com.au’s request for further comment, Bunnings Managing Director John Gillam said the retailer was weighing up customer feedback on the policy, which it had quietly introduced in April.

“We’ve had some great customer ideas such as ‘weekdays only’ or ‘only if muzzled’ and we will evaluate whether these make sense,” Mr Gillam said in a statement.

He said dogs had been visiting the hardware chain’s stores for decades “in a low key way”.

“Some have come in on the back of a tradies ute and other smaller dogs have been carried in by their owners ... We made a common sense decision to recognise in our policies that well behaved pet dogs are permitted,” Mr Gillam said.

“We will continue to evolve our policy so that it meets community expectations.”

(my son did this in a friend's shaded yard and his staffy ate the console and the side door panel)

omg    

i should add - give me dogs at bunnings

instead of feral kids any time.

Would I be allowed to ride a horse in there?

do you usually take your horse and

cart to go shopping?

hmmm....maybe its not such a good idea

after all.  they need to consider the number of

ppl with no common sense....
