One Very Dog-Unfriendly Place

First, please understand that a lot of what transpired on my walk was ill-advised; well down-right dumb. But the interesting part is I found out I could not take White Dog in a PARKING GARAGE, and just about got my ass kicked by 4 huge (fat) security guards.

My friend had an appointment with her lawyer who’s office is Gas Company tower. She had some things to drop off for me but was running late so called me and told me where she parked and that passenger door would be unlocked. Yes, yes, in retrospect this is dumb for me to even think about doing, but Isis needed a walk so I headed out.

I walked into parking structure (under building) through the car entrance. I’m down to 2nd level and some security guard tells me dogs are not allowed. This is what gets my blood pressure up as it makes no sense- I kind of laughed and just kept going. So he gets on his cell phone and calls backup- 3 big guys- I mean 275 lbs easily, almost instantly appear. There was no reasoning with them- they wanted to know license plate number of friends car- I could not provide it but I did desribe it perfectly. I said call her on your cell phone and ask her questions. They would not.

It’s very clear at this point I will be thrown out on my ass if I don’t leave. I always hate confrontations when I have White Dog- I definitely would be fighting with one hand behind my back (holding her leash- I will never let that go) and these 4 guys could just carry me out and throw me on the sidewalk-if they did not run out of breath :-)

But honestly, they did a great job considering how pissed I was getting. I just cannot believe you cannot walk a dog through a parking garage (yes, I understand not being able to access my frineds car- very smart of them, and very dumb of me, but that is not how the confrontation started).

I would like to buy those guys lunch- they did a good job with a crazy pissed guy like I was.

This sweetheart of a lady was nice enough to stop by and drop stuff off at 6th and Spring after getting an earfull from me after my experience. I am very lucky to know her.

    You may need to take out a loan if you’re planning on buying lunch for 825lbs of security guards :-)
