I’m about to be kicked out of a hotel that is “pet friendly” because my dog barked too much last night. Now how can you say you’re pet friendly if a barking dog is not allowed? Does a purring cat get kicked out too? I’d have to say that is species discrimination. Maybe I should call my congressman and file a legislative complaint. Think I’d get anywhere?
Now here’s the real rub. I’m told I can’t leave the dog in the room by herself and this hotel has a complimentary breakfast. So I put her on her leash, go down to breakfast and am eyeballing the waffle maker. A very nice man comes up to me and says, “Ma’am, you can’t have the dog here while you wait for a waffle.” Now what am I supposed to do? I can’t leave her in the room, and I can’t have my waffle!” Again …. discrimination (can’t figure out which category, but give me time, I’ll figure it out).
All this dog hotel stuff, because I am killing termites and mice at my house – more animal stuff…..who says animals don’t rule the world?
