My wife and I visited the pub today after a long walk for a well-earned drink. As we entered the pub my wife went straight to the toilet whilst I waited at the bar with our two small Toy Poodles, one of which is extremely...anxious and was crying as my wife wasn’t present. A friendly member of staff approached our dogs and the anxious one began to bark at her, I did explain that he didn’t like people he did not know and she was fine with this, My wife returned and I was waiting at the bar when a gentleman who we now know to be the owner approached my wife and quoted ‘we do expect a certain level of control over your dogs.’ I had no issues with what was said, it was the manner in which it was said. He went onto ask if he would calm down once we were seated, we explained that he would but due to how loud this comment was made and the tone in which it was made we found it extremely embarrassing, because of this we decided to leave and spend our money in a ‘real’ dog friendly pub. I appreciate that noisy dogs can be annoying but this incident lasted no more than two minutes and would the same have been said to a parent about their child if the pub had play faculties ? This was such a shame as the pub came highly recommended.More
