At the movies..

My human is always  interested in how dogs are treated in other countries.  It seems that some countries are more dog-friendly than in North America.  For example, dogs are allowed on public transport, and there are more dog friendly outdoor cafes.  Now while Halifax DOES have a few cafes that allow pets, a recent bid to have dogs allowed on the local Halifax-Dartmouth ferry was denied.  And I was SO looking forward to taking that ride...

A good example of dog friendly comes from the UK - in London to be exact.  There is a movie theatre that is allowing humans to bring along their dogs for certain screenings.  Check it out:

Is that great or what?  Mind you, my human laughed uncontrollably at the thought of taking us.  First off, NONE of us could settle down to watch the movie.  Especially if it was crowded and we had someone seated right next to us.  And just IMAGINE me trying to steal popcorn from other patrons.  

And what movies do they show?  Any dog film that involved barking at ANY point would be enough to send Einstein over the edge.  Other dogs would no doubt join in as well.  Picture a theatre full of howling dogs as Lassie tries to warn people that Timmy has fallen down the well.  I would THINK the movie would have to be very carefully selected...

I can just see the FG standing with his two paws on the seat ahead of him, licking the head of the person seated there... 

So while the dog-friendly cinema IS a great idea...it's probably not meant for us.

Now.  What WE need is a dog-friendly butcher shop...

Have a good one.  Peace and paws up!
