Good on Costco!

Costco should know better, just like Wal*Mart. I've been chased around in the dirtiest of businesses to be told that dogs aren't allowed in. One business owner who said that to me I told him my dog was cleaner than his floor was. He had to laugh and agree. Then, no further problems if and only if ADA is explained for service animals. When I've gotten disagreement before, I've called the police. No brainer, company backs down really fast. Hmm . . . can't imagine why?   I won the battle and also won the war!
