Well, another reason to skip Wal-Mart

I rarely go into Wal-Mart and avoid it if possible.
We got refused entrance last week (see picture).
I told the man “Thanks, that’s another reason for me not to shop at Wal-Mart.”
I mean it’s not like it’s a Great Dane on a leash.
(Ever heard of the "Container Rule" for animals?)
And don’t tell me about food rules. Automotive and the pet departments are on the far side of the store from the food. I take her into other “Marts” with no problem (won’t name names). And at the mall. the food court is right down the block from the pet store.
