Access denied !!!

[Kevin Sowten]

Quite surprised that Max (our Jack Russell) was denied access to the new FIG shop today by 'the manager' ('tie it up outside' - no way !!!) Especially as we were in there with him buying stuff on opening day !!! Hey ho, 3Cs and Animal Aid in future methinks !!!

We'll if there is Turkish people inside they are scared of dogs,
And most shops in UK you can't take dogs in,

Put a sign on the door then (as UK shops do) and you won't be 'troubled' !!!!

The FIG guys have worked extremely hard to open the new shop and I am sure you can appreciate with it being a shop with clothes etc in the no animals are allowed in.. I am sure this stands for a the other clothes shops in fethiye.. As for a sign on the door.. I don't believe I have seen any anywhere else?  It would certainly put me off buying if I knew animals were allowed inside.

I would be very surprised if the majority of shops in the UK had a sign on the door.

But the incident didn't happen in the UK. It happened in Turkey where things are, naturally, different.

Being dog friendly is often used as a marketing tool. I like to see it in hotel descriptions where they often say "Pets welcome". I like it because it informs me that I need to find somewhere else to stay

Beat me to it kevin3 = to be honest that's what I thought

[Scunner]

But what is the norm "in Rome"? I don't recall seeing many dogs in Migros or shops in general over there?

[Kevin Sowten]

I certainly wouldn't think of taking Max in a food shop. My point was that there was no objection on opening day, just be consistent ! But as I said, there are dog friendly alternatives
